perf probe: Support "string" type



Support string type casting to event argument. If perf-probe finds an argument
casted as string, it ensures the target variable is "(unsigned/signed) char
*(or []). perf-probe also adds dereference if the target is a pointer.

So, both of 'char buf[10];' and 'char *buf;' can be accessed by 'buf:string'
