filebased_probe_listing

perf: show possible probes in a given executable file or library.

Enhances -F/--funcs option of "perf probe" to list possible probe points in
an executable file or library.

Show last 10 functions in /bin/zsh.

# perf probe -F -x /bin/zsh | tail
zstrtol
ztrcmp
ztrdup
ztrduppfx
ztrftime
ztrlen
ztrncpy
ztrsub
zwarn
zwarnnam

Show first 10 functions in /lib/libc.so.6

# perf probe -F -x /lib/libc.so.6 | head

_IO_adjust_wcolumn
_IO_default_doallocate
_IO_default_finish
_IO_default_pbackfail
_IO_default_uflow
_IO_default_xsgetn
_IO_default_xsputn
