perf parse-events: Fix parsing of >30kb event strings
Metrics may generate many particularly uncore event references. The
resulting event string may then be >32kb. The parse events lex is
using "%option reject" which stores backtracking state in a buffer
sized at roughtly 30kb. If the event string is larger than this then a
buffer overflow and typically a crash happens.
The need for "%option reject" was for BPF events which were removed in
commit
3d6dfae88917 ("perf parse-events: Remove BPF event
support"). As "%option reject" is both a memory and performance cost
let's remove it and fix the parsing case for event strings being over
~30kb.
Whilst cleaning up "%option reject" make the header files accurately
reflect functions used in the code and tidy up not requiring yywrap.
Measuring on the "PMU JSON event tests" a modest reduction of 0.41%
user time and 0.27% max resident size was observed. More importantly
this change fixes parsing large metrics and event strings.
