Subject: [PATCH 15/20] perf trace: free malloc'd trace fields on exit
Date:   Thu, 15 Jul 2021 18:07:20 +0200

ASan reports several memory leaks running the perf test
"88: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname".
The first of these leaks is related to struct trace fields never being
deallocated.

This patch adds the function trace__exit, which is called at the end of
cmd_trace, replacing the existing deallocation, which is now moved
inside the new function.
This function deallocates:
 - ev_qualifier
 - ev_qualifier_ids.entries
 - syscalls.table
 - sctbl
 - perfconfig_events

In order to prevent errors in case any of this field is never
initialized, this patch also adds initialization to NULL to these
fields.
