perf: Copy perf_event_attr::sig_data on modification
The intent has always been that perf_event_attr::sig_data should also be
modifiable along with PERF_EVENT_IOC_MODIFY_ATTRIBUTES, because it is
observable by user space if SIGTRAP on events is requested.
Currently only PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT is modifiable, and explicitly copies
relevant breakpoint-related attributes in hw_breakpoint_copy_attr().
This misses copying perf_event_attr::sig_data.
Since sig_data is not specific to PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT, introduce a
helper to copy generic event-type-independent attributes on
modification.
Fixes: 97ba62b27867 ("perf: Add support for SIGTRAP on perf events")
