pmc.amd(3): rename from pmc.k8(3)

This is the first step in recognizing that the K8 microarchitecture
represents a small and aged subset of AMD CPUs supported by this class.
Future changes will update the code and documentation details to better
reflect this.

Keep the old filename as an alias.

Add software PMC support.

New kernel events can be added at various location for sampling or counting.
This will for example allow easy system profiling whatever the processor is
with known tools like pmcstat(8).

Simultaneous usage of software PMC and hardware PMC is possible, for example
looking at the lock acquire failure, page fault while sampling on
instructions.
