perf/x86/intel/pt: Prevent redundant WRMSRs

With recent optimizations to AUX and PT buffer management code (high order
AUX allocations, opportunistic Single Range Output), it is far more likely
now that the output MSRs won't need reprogramming on every sched-in.

To avoid needless WRMSRs of those registers, cache their values and only
write them when needed.
