perf/x86/intel/uncore: Remove ev_sel_ext bit support for PCU
The ev_sel_ext in PCU_MSR_PMON_CTL is locked on some CPU models, so despite
it being documented in the SDM, if we write 1 to that bit then we can get a #GP
fault.
Which #GP the perf fuzzer happily triggered in Peter Zijlstra's testing.
Also, there are no public events which use that bit, so remove ev_sel_ext
bit support for PCU.
