Add metrics for s390 z15
- Percentage sourced from Level 2 cache
- Percentage sourced from Level 3 on same chip cache
- Percentage sourced from Level 4 Local cache on same book
- Percentage sourced from Level 4 Remote cache on different book
- Percentage sourced from memory
For details about the formulas see this documentation:
