Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
While there is a tutorial how to do that with Hyper-V using Set-VMProcessor -Perfmon there is no such option with machines maintained via azure-cli.

Describe the solution you'd like
An option --enable-perfmon similar to Hyper-V's configuration via Powershell mentioned above.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Switch from Azure as perf counters are virtualized out of the box with other providers and can be enabled when configuring virtual machines on own hardware.

Additional context
Useful for perf record, perf stat, vtune, perfgrind, rr and a bunch of other developer software.
