perf probe: Support argument name

Set given names to event arguments. The syntax is same as kprobe-tracer,
you can add 'NAME=' right before each argument.

e.g.
  ./perf probe vfs_read foo=file

 then, 'foo' is set to the argument name as below.

  ./perf probe -l
  probe:vfs_read       (on vfs_read@linux-2.6-tip/fs/read_write.c with foo)
