perf python: Add function returning dictionary of all events on a PMU

Allow all events on a PMU to be gathered, similar to how perf list
gathers event information.

An example usage:
```
$ python
Python 3.12.9 (main, Feb  5 2025, 01:31:18) [GCC 14.2.0] on linux
>>> import perf
>>> for pmu in perf.pmus():
...   print(pmu.events())
...
[{'name': 'mem_load_retired.l3_hit', 'desc': 'Retired load instructions...
```
