[PATCH V2 3/3] tools/testing/selftests/powerpc: Update the bhrb filter sampling test to test for multiple branch filters

For PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK sample type, different branch_sample_type,
ie branch filters are supported. The testcase "bhrb_filter_map_test"
tests the valid and invalid filter maps in different powerpc platforms.
Update this testcase to include scenario to cover multiple branch
filters at sametime. Since powerpc doesn't support multiple filters at
sametime, expect failure during perf_event_open.

Changelog:
 Fixed compile error for undefined branch sample type
 by using PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_ANY_CALL instead of
 PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_TYPE_SAVE
