perf tests: Use perf_evlist__strerror_open() to provide hints about max_freq

Before:

# perf test -v "code reading" 2>&1 | tail -4
perf_evlist__open failed
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Test object code reading: FAILED!
#

After:

# perf test -v "code reading" 2>&1 | tail -7
perf_evlist__open() failed!
Error: Invalid argument.
Hint: Check /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
Hint: The current value is 1000 and 4000 is being requested.
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Test object code reading: FAILED!
