[PATCH V4 18/23] perf/x86/intel: Disable sampling read slots and topdown

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com>

To get correct PERF_METRICS value, the fixed counter 3 must start from
0. It would bring problems when sampling read slots and topdown events.
For example,
perf record -e '{slots, topdown-retiring}:S'
The slots would not overflow if it starts from 0.

Add specific validate_group() support to reject the case and error out
for Icelake.
