perf/x86/intel: Rename DMR offcore_rsp attribute to offmodule_rspgrafted
DMR introduces Offmodule Response events in place of the legacy
Offcore Response events, but it still exposes the inherited
offcore_rsp PMU attribute for programming the corresponding MSR data.
Rename the DMR PMU attribute to offmodule_rsp so the sysfs interface
matches the underlying event name and avoids user & tooling confusion.
