perf/probes: Improve probe point syntax of perf-probe
This changes probe point syntax of perf-probe as below <SRC>[:ABS_LN] [ARGS] or <FUNC>[+OFFS|%return][@SRC] [ARGS] And event name and event group name are automatically generated based on probe-symbol and offset as below. perfprobes/SYMBOL_OFFSET[_NUM] Where SYMBOL is the probing symbol and OFFSET is the byte offset from the symbol.
