[RFC PATCH v8 32/49] perf record: Probe at kprobe points

[Wang Nan]

In this patch, kprobe points are created using add_perf_probe_events.
Since all events are already grouped together in an array, calling
add_perf_probe_events() once creates all of them.

probe_conf.max_probes is set to MAX_PROBES to support glob matching.
