perf evsel: Fix attr.exclude_kernel setting for default cycles:p

Yet another fix for probing the max attr.precise_ip setting: it is not
enough settting attr.exclude_kernel for !root users, as they _can_
profile the kernel if the kernel.perf_event_paranoid sysctl is set to
-1, so check that as well.

Testing it:

As non root:

  $ sysctl kernel.perf_event_paranoid
  kernel.perf_event_paranoid = 2
  $ perf record sleep 1
  $ perf evlist -v
  cycles:uppp: ..., exclude_kernel: 1, ... precise_ip: 3, ...

Now as non-root, but with kernel.perf_event_paranoid set set to the
most permissive value, -1:

  $ sysctl kernel.perf_event_paranoid
  kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1
  $ perf record sleep 1
  $ perf evlist -v
  cycles:ppp: ..., exclude_kernel: 0, ... precise_ip: 3, ...
  $

I.e. non-root, default kernel.perf_event_paranoid: :uppp modifier = not allowed to sample the kernel,
     non-root, most permissible kernel.perf_event_paranoid: :ppp = allowed to sample the kernel.

In both cases, use the highest available precision: attr.precise_ip = 3.
