XMM registers can be collected on Icelake and later platforms.
Add specific arch__intr_reg_mask(), which creating an event to check if
the kernel and hardware can collect XMM registers.
Test on Skylake which doesn't support XMM registers collection. There is
nothing changed.

Committer notes:
Don't set attr.sample_period as a named struct init, as it is part of an
unnamed union in 'struct perf_event_attr', and doing so breaks the build
on older gcc versions, such as:
gcc version 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-55)
gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-23) (GCC)

[ Only on a lenovo t480s, a skylake machine, where the XMM registers didn't show up in -I?/--user-regs=? as expected ]
