James Clark 20ebc4a649 perf test: Fix skipping branch stack sampling test
Commit f4a2aade68 ("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
