perf: Export struct perf_branch_entry to userspace
If PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK is enabled then samples are returned with the format { u64 from, to, flags } but the flags layout is not specified. This field has the type struct perf_branch_entry; move this definition into include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h so users can access these fields. This is similar to the existing inclusion of perf_mem_data_src in the include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h file.
