[PATCH V2] perf test: Fix parse-events tests to skip parametrized events

Testcase "Parsing of all PMU events from sysfs" parse events for
all PMUs, and not just cpu. In case of powerpc, the PowerVM
environment supports events from hv_24x7 and hv_gpci PMU which
is of example format like below:

- hv_24x7/CPM_ADJUNCT_INST,domain=?,core=?/
- hv_gpci/event,partition_id=?/

The value for "?" needs to be filled in depending on system
configuration. It is better to skip these parametrized events
in this test as it is done in:
'commit b50d691e50e6 ("perf test: Fix "all PMU test" to skip
parametrized events")' which handled a simialr instance with
"all PMU test".

Fix parse-events test to skip parametrized events since
it needs proper setup of the parameters.

Changelog:
v1 -> v2:
 Addressed review comments from Ian. Updated size of
 pmu event name variable and changed bool name which is
 used to skip the test.
