perf probe: Support escaped character in parser

Support the special characters escaped by '\' in parser. This allows
user to specify versions directly like below.

=====
# ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state\\@GLIBC_2.2.5
Added new event:
probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state@xxxxxxxxxxx in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)

You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

perf record -e probe_libc:malloc_get_state -aR sleep 1

=====

Or, you can use separators in source filename, e.g.

=====
# ./perf probe -x /opt/test/a.out foo+bar.c:3
Semantic error :There is non-digit character in offset.
Error: Command Parse Error.
=====

Usually "+" in source file cause parser error, but

=====
# ./perf probe -x /opt/test/a.out foo\\+bar.c:4
Added new event:
probe_a:main (on @foo+bar.c:4 in /opt/test/a.out)

You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

perf record -e probe_a:main -aR sleep 1
=====

escaped "\+" allows you to specify that.

+ESCAPED CHARACTER
+-----------------
+
+In the probe syntax, '=', '@', '+', ':' and ';' are treated as a special character. You can use a backslash ('\') to escape the special characters.
+This is useful if you need to probe on a specific versioned symbols, like @GLIBC_... suffixes, or also you need to specify a source file which includes the special characters.
+Note that usually single backslash is consumed by shell, so you might need to pass double backslash (\\) or wrapping with single quotes (\'AAA\@BBB').
+See EXAMPLES how it is used.

PROBE ARGUMENT
--------------
Each probe argument follows below syntax.
