perf probe: Fix event namelist to duplicate string
Fix event namelist to duplicate string. Without duplicating, adding multiple probes causes stack overwrite bug, because it reuses a buffer on stack while the buffer is already added in the namelist. String duplication solves this bug because only contents of the buffer is copied to the namelist.
