perf test: Fix skipping branch stack sampling test
Commit f4a2aade6809c657 ("perf tests powerpc: Fix branch stack sampling
test to include sanity check for branch filter") added a skip if certain
branch options aren't available.
But the change added both -b (--branch-any) and --branch-filter options
at the same time, which will always result in a failure on any platform
because the arguments can't be used together.
Fix this by removing -b (--branch-any) and leaving --branch-filter which
already specifies 'any'. Also add warning messages to the test and perf
tool.
Output on x86 before this fix:
$ sudo ./perf test branch
108: Check branch stack sampling : Skip
After:
$ sudo ./perf test branch
108: Check branch stack sampling : Ok
