perf stat: Fix --metric-only --json output

Currently it prints all metric headers for JSON output.  But actually it
skips some metrics with valid_only_metric().  So the output looks like:

  $ perf stat --metric-only --json true
  {"unit" : "CPUs utilized", "unit" : "/sec", "unit" : "/sec", "unit" : "/sec", "unit" : "GHz", "unit" : "insn per cycle", "unit" : "/sec", "unit" : "branch-misses of all branches"}
  {"metric-value" : "3.861"}{"metric-value" : "0.79"}{"metric-value" : "3.04"}

As you can see there are 8 units in the header but only 3 metric-values
are there.  It should skip the unused headers as well.  Also each unit
should be printed as a separate object like metric values.

With this patch:

  $ perf stat --metric-only --json true
  {"unit" : "GHz"}{"unit" : "insn per cycle"}{"unit" : "branch-misses of all branches"}
  {"metric-value" : "4.166"}{"metric-value" : "0.73"}{"metric-value" : "2.96"}
