perf trace: Handle perf.data files with no tracepoints
Before: perf trace -i perf.data Segmentation fault (core dumped) # After: # perf trace -i perf.data Data file does not have raw_syscalls:sys_enter events # When there are no tracepoints in a perf.data file the struct pevent that contains the list of tracepoints that will be used to lookup the tracepoint id by name will not be populated, causing a NULL deref. And we don't need to do all that dance to look at pevents for an entry with a slighly different name to then lookup the tracepoint by its id on the evlist, just use the perf_evlist__find_tracepoint_by_name() routine, that will find the tracepoint, if present.
