perf evsel: Do not put a variable sized type not at the end of a struct

As this is a GNU extension and while harmless in this case, we can do
the same thing in a more clearer way by using a existing thread_map and
cpu_map constructors:

With this we avoid this while compiling with clang:

  util/evsel.c:1659:17: error: field 'map' with variable sized type 'struct cpu_map' not at the end of a struct or class is a GNU extension
        [-Werror,-Wgnu-variable-sized-type-not-at-end]
          struct cpu_map map;
                         ^
  util/evsel.c:1667:20: error: field 'map' with variable sized type 'struct thread_map' not at the end of a struct or class is a GNU extension
        [-Werror,-Wgnu-variable-sized-type-not-at-end]
          struct thread_map map;
                            ^
