Subject: [PATCH v6 20/59] perf python: Extend API for stat events in python.c

From: Ian Rogers <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 25 Apr 2026 10:48:18 -0700

Add stat information to the session. Add call backs for stat events.

Assisted-by: Gemini:gemini-3.1-pro-preview
Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <[email-masked]>

v5:
1. Fix Memory Corruption: Corrected the memory offset for `stat_round_type`
   in `pyrf_stat_round_event__members` by adding the base offset of
   `struct pyrf_event`.
2. Fix Memory Leak: Added `Py_XDECREF()` to free the unused return value
   of the Python callback in `pyrf_session_tool__stat_round()`.
