Masami Hiramatsu c588d15812 perf probe: Support escaped character in parser ...

Support the special characters escaped by '\' in parser.  This allows
user to specify versions directly like below.

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state\\@GLIBC_2.2.5
  Added new event:
    probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2.2.5 in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe_libc:malloc_get_state -aR sleep 1

  =====

Or, you can use separators in source filename, e.g.

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /opt/test/a.out foo+bar.c:3
  Semantic error :There is non-digit character in offset.
    Error: Command Parse Error.
  =====

Usually "+" in source file cause parser error, but

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /opt/test/a.out foo\\+bar.c:4
  Added new event:
    probe_a:main         (on @foo+bar.c:4 in /opt/test/a.out)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe_a:main -aR sleep 1
  =====

escaped "\+" allows you to specify that.
