perf probe: Support probing at absolute address

It should be useful to allow 'perf probe' probe at absolute offset of a
target. For example, when (u)probing at a instruction of a shared object
in a embedded system where debuginfo is not avaliable but we know the
offset of that instruction by manually digging.

This patch enables following perf probe command syntax:

  # perf probe 0xffffffff811e6615

And

  # perf probe /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 0xeb860

In the above example, we don't need a anchor symbol, so it is possible
to compute absolute addresses using other methods and then use 'perf
probe' to create the probing points.

v1 -> v2:
  Drop the leading '+' in cmdline;
  Allow uprobing at offset 0x0;
  Improve 'perf probe -l' result when uprobe at area without debuginfo.

v2 -> v3:
  Split bugfix to a separated patch.

Test result:

  # perf probe sys_write %ax
