String lists defining the core and CPU threads topology.
The string lists are followed by a variable length array
which contains core_id and socket_id of each cpu.
The number of entries can be determined by the size of the
section minus the sizes of both string lists.
struct {
struct perf_header_string_list cores; /* Variable length */
struct perf_header_string_list threads; /* Variable length */
struct {
