Ian Rogers b71f46a6a7 perf stat: Remove hard coded shadow metrics
Now that the metrics are encoded in common json the hard coded
printing means the metrics are shown twice. Remove the hard coded
version.

This means that when specifying events, and those events correspond to
a hard coded metric, the metric will no longer be displayed. The
metric will be displayed if the metric is requested. Due to the adhoc
printing in the previous approach it was often found frustrating, the
new approach avoids this.

The default perf stat output on an alderlake now looks like:
```
$ perf stat -a -- sleep 1

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
