Jin Yao c47a5599ed perf tools: Fix pattern matching for same substring in different PMU type
Some different PMU types may have the same substring. For example, on
Icelake server we have PMU types "uncore_imc" and
"uncore_imc_free_running". Both PMU types have the substring
"uncore_imc".  But the parser wrongly thinks they are the same PMU type.

We enable an imc event,
perf stat -e uncore_imc/event=0xe3/ -a -- sleep 1

Perf actually expands the event to:

  uncore_imc_0/event=0xe3/
  uncore_imc_1/event=0xe3/
  uncore_imc_2/event=0xe3/
  uncore_imc_3/event=0xe3/
  uncore_imc_4/event=0xe3/
  uncore_imc_5/event=0xe3/
  uncore_imc_6/event=0xe3/
  uncore_imc_7/event=0xe3/
  uncore_imc_free_running_0/event=0xe3/
  uncore_imc_free_running_1/event=0xe3/
  uncore_imc_free_running_3/event=0xe3/
  uncore_imc_free_running_4/event=0xe3/

That's because the "uncore_imc_free_running" matches the
pattern "uncore_imc*".

Now we check that the last characters of PMU name is '_<digit>'.

For example, for pattern "uncore_imc*", "uncore_imc_0" is parsed ok, but
"uncore_imc_free_running_0" fails.
