[PATCH 2/4] tools/perf: Add new macros for mem_hops field

Add new macros for mem_hops field which can be used to
represent remote-node, socket and board level details.

Currently the code had macro for HOPS_0 which, corresponds
to data coming from another core but same node.
Add new macros for HOPS_1 to HOPS_3 to represent
remote-node, socket and board level data.

Also add corresponding strings in the mem_hops array to
represent mem_hop field data in perf_mem__lvl_scnprintf function

Incase mem_hops field is used, PERF_MEM_LVLNUM field also need
to be set inorder to represent the data source. Hence printing
data source via PERF_MEM_LVL field can be skip in that scenario.

For ex: Encodings for mem_hops fields with L2 cache:

L2                      - local L2
L2 | REMOTE | HOPS_0    - remote core, same node L2
L2 | REMOTE | HOPS_1    - remote node, same socket L2
L2 | REMOTE | HOPS_2    - remote socket, same board L2
L2 | REMOTE | HOPS_3    - remote board L2
