Ian Rogers db5af2e4a0 perf mem: Don't leak mem event names ...

When preparing the mem events for the argv copies are intentionally
made. These copies are leaked and cause runs of perf using address
sanitizer to fail. Rather than leak the memory allocate a chunk of
memory for the mem event names upfront and build the strings in this -
the storage is sized larger than the previous buffer size. The caller
is then responsible for clearing up this memory. As part of this
change, remove the mem_loads_name and mem_stores_name global buffers
then change the perf_pmu__mem_events_name to write to an out argument
buffer.
