perf evsel: Fallback to "task-clock" when not system wide
When the "cycles" event isn't available evsel will fallback to the
"cpu-clock" software event.
"task-clock" is similar to "cpu-clock" but only runs when the process is
running.
Falling back to "cpu-clock" when not system wide leads to confusion, by
falling back to "task-clock" it is hoped the confusion is less.
Pass the target to determine if "task-clock" is more appropriate.
Update a nearby comment and debug string for the change.
