perf topdown: Use attribute to see an event is a topdown metic or slots

Browse source 
The string comparisons were overly broad and could fire for the
incorrect PMU and events. Switch to using the config in the attribute
then add a perf test to confirm the attribute config values match
those of parsed events of that name and don't match others. This
exposed matches for slots events that shouldn't have matched as the
slots fixed counter event, such as topdown.slots_p.
