[RFC PATCH 01/22] perf: probe: avoid segfault if passed with ''.

[Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com>]

Since parse_perf_probe_point() deals with a user passed argument, we
should not assume it to be a valid string.

Without this patch, if pass '' to perf probe, a segfault raises:

 $ perf probe -a ''
 Segmentation fault

This patch checks argument of parse_perf_probe_point() before
string processing.

After this patch:

 $ perf probe -a ''

  usage: perf probe [<options>] 'PROBEDEF' ['PROBEDEF' ...]
     or: perf probe [<options>] --add 'PROBEDEF' [--add 'PROBEDEF' ...]
     ...
