perf tools: Reconstruct sw event with modifiers from perf_event_attr

  [root@sandy ~]# perf record -e task-clock:u -a usleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.482 MB perf.data (~21073 samples) ]
  [root@sandy ~]#

Before:

  [root@sandy ~]# perf evlist
  task-clock
  [root@sandy ~]#

After:

  [root@sandy ~]# perf evlist
  task-clock:u
  [root@sandy ~]#

Ditto for other tools.
