Ian Rogers 90a815a22a perf pmu-events: Convert recursive shell assignments and macros to Make built-ins

In pmu-events/Build, ZENS, ARMS, and INTELS were assigned using recursive
assignment (=), and model_name/vendor_name were evaluated using shell
macros (echo ... | sed ...).

Because these variables were expanded inside the COPY_RULE dependency
evaluation loop across hundreds of PMU JSON files and inside every metric
generation recipe, Kbuild continuously re-executed 'ls', 'grep', and 'sed'
shell forks thousands of times during AST parsing and execution.

Convert ZENS, ARMS, and INTELS to simply expanded variables (:=) and
replace model_name/vendor_name with pure GNU Make string functions. This
guarantees Make executes directory probing shell forks exactly once when
the Build file is parsed and evaluates path macros purely in memory,
completely eliminating over 7,800 redundant sub-processes during build
startup.
