Implement intel_pmu_lbr_sync_task_ctx() method that updates counter of the events that requested LBR callstack data on a sample.
The counter can be zero for the case when task context belongs to a thread that has just come from a block on a futex and the context contains saved (lbr_stack_state == LBR_VALID) LBR register values. For the values to be restored at LBR registers on the next thread's switch-in event it copies the counter value that is expected to be non zero from the previous equivalent task perf event context.
