[PATCH v3 03/10] perf parse-events: Add parse_uid_filter helper

[Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>]

Add parse_uid_filter filter as a helper to parse_filter, that
constructs a uid filter string. As uid filters don't work with
tracepoint filters, add a is_possible_tp_filter function so the
tracepoint filter isn't attempted for tracepoint evsels.
