perf stat: Avoid merging/aggregating metric counts twice
The added perf_stat_merge_counters combines uncore counters. When metrics are enabled, the counts are merged into a metric_leader via the stat-shadow saved_value logic. As the leader now is passed an aggregated count, it leads to all counters being added together twice and counts appearing approximately doubled in metrics. This change disables the saved_value merging of counts for evsels that are merged. It is recommended that later changes remove the saved_value entirely as the two layers of aggregation in the code is confusing.
