perf_counter: Rework the sample ABI
The PERF_EVENT_READ implementation made me realize we don't
actually need the sample_type int the output sample, since
we already have that in the perf_counter_attr information.
Therefore, remove the PERF_EVENT_MISC_OVERFLOW bit and the
event->type overloading, and imply put counter overflow
samples in a PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE type.
This also fixes the issue that event->type was only 32-bit
and sample_type had 64 usable bits.
