Joakim reports that getting "perf stat" for multiple system PMU metrics
segfaults:
./perf stat -a -I 1000 -M imx8mm_ddr_write.all,imx8mm_ddr_write.all
Segmentation fault

While the same works without issue for a single metric.

The logic in metricgroup__add_metric_sys_event_iter() is broken, in that
add_metric() @m argument should be NULL for each new metric. Fix by not
passing a holder for that, and rather make local in
metricgroup__add_metric_sys_event_iter().

Fixes: be335ec28efa ("perf metricgroup: Support adding metrics for system PMUs")
