There are currently only three monitor events, all associated with
the RDT_RESOURCE_L3 resource. Growing support for additional events
will be easier with some restructuring to have a single point in
file system code where all attributes of all events are defined.

Place all event descriptions into an array mon_event_all[]. Doing
this has the beneficial side effect of removing the need for
rdt_resource::evt_list.

Add resctrl_event_id::QOS_FIRST_EVENT for a lower bound on range
checks for event ids and as the starting index to scan mon_event_all[].

Drop the code that builds evt_list and change the two places where
the list is scanned to scan mon_event_all[] instead using a new
helper macro for_each_mon_event().

Architecture code now informs file system code which events are
available with resctrl_enable_mon_event().
