perf: mmap 512 kiB by default
The default setting of perf record is to mmap 128 pages if the user did not override with -m. However the page size may vary accross different architecture settings, giving different default size between each. Moreover the kernel side still has a default max number of mlocked pages of 512 kiB + 1 page for unprivileged users. 128 + 1 pages with page size > 4096 overlaps this threshold. Thus, better adapt to this limitation and set the default number of pages to fit those 512 kiB + 1 page.
