perf probe: Speed up perf probe --list by caching debuginfo
Speed up the "perf probe --list" by caching the last used debuginfo.
perf probe --list always open and load debuginfo for each entry of probe
list. This takes very a long time.
E.g. with vfs_* events (total 96 probes)
[root@localhost perf]# time ./perf probe -l &> /dev/null
real 0m25.376s
user 0m24.381s
sys 0m1.012s
To solve this issue, this adds debuginfo_cache to cache the
last used debuginfo on memory.
With this fix, the perf-probe --list significantly improves
its speed.
[root@localhost perf]# time ./perf probe -l &> /dev/null
real 0m0.161s
user 0m0.136s
sys 0m0.025s
