perf test: Add --metric-only to perf stat output tests

Add a test case for --metric-only for std, csv, json output mode using
shadow IPC metric from instructions and cycles events.  It should
produce 'insn per cycle' metric.

But currently JSON output has (none) 'GHz' as well.  It looks like a bug
but I don't have enough time to debug it for now so I made it pass. :(

  $ perf stat --metric-only -e instructions,cycles true

   Performance counter stats for 'true':

                    0.56

         0.002127319 seconds time elapsed

         0.002077000 seconds user
         0.000000000 seconds sys

  $ perf stat -x, --metric-only -e instructions,cycles true

  0.55,,

  $ perf stat -j --metric-only -e instructions,cycles true
  {"insn per cycle" : "0.53", "GHz" : "none"}

  $ perf test output -v
