perf inject: With --convert-callchain ignore the dummy event for dwarf stacks

Browse source 
On hybrid systems there is generally >1 event and a dummy event.

The perf inject --convert-callchain option is failing to convert
perf.data files on such systems reporting "--convert-callchain requires
DWARF call graph."

The failing event is the dummy event that doesn't need to be set up for
samples.

As such ignore this event when checking the evsels.
