perf/core: Add speculation info to branch entries
Add a new "spec" bitfield to branch entries for providing speculation
information. This will be populated using hints provided by branch sampling
features on supported hardware. The following cases are covered:
* No branch speculation information is available
* Branch is speculative but taken on the wrong path
* Branch is non-speculative but taken on the correct path
* Branch is speculative and taken on the correct path
