perf test: Add a test for the new Arm CPU ID comparison behavior

Now that variant and revision fields are taken into account the behavior
is slightly more complicated so add a test to ensure that this behaves
as expected.

perf tests arm64: Compile tests unconditionally

In order to subsequently add more tests for the arm64 architecture we
compile the tests target for arm64 systematically.

perf tests arm64: Compile tests unconditionally

In order to subsequently add more tests for the arm64 architecture we
compile the tests target for arm64 systematically.

Further explanation provided by Mark Rutland:

Given prior questions regarding this commit, it's probably worth
spelling things out more explicitly, e.g.

Currently we only build the arm64/tests directory if
CONFIG_DWARF_UNWIND is selected, which is fine as the only test we
have is arm64/tests/dwarf-unwind.o.

So that we can add more tests to the test directory, let's
unconditionally build the directory, but conditionally build
dwarf-unwind.o depending on CONFIG_DWARF_UNWIND.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
