perf/arm-cmn: Rework DTC counters (again)
The bitmap-based scheme for tracking DTC counter usage turns out to be a complete dead-end for its imagined purpose, since by the time we have to keep track of a per-DTC counter index anyway, we already have enough information to make the bitmap itself redundant. Revert the remains of it back to almost the original scheme, but now expanded to track per-DTC indices, in preparation for making use of them in anger. Note that since cycle count events always use a dedicated counter on a single DTC, we reuse the field to encode their DTC index directly.
