perf tools: Support --prefix/--prefix-strip
The objdump utility has useful --prefix / --prefix-strip options to
allow changing source code file names hardcoded into executables' debug
info. Add options to 'perf report', 'perf top' and 'perf annotate',
which are then passed to objdump.
$ mkdir foo
$ echo 'main() { for (;;); }' > foo/foo.c
$ gcc -g foo/foo.c
foo/foo.c:1:1: warning: return type defaults to ‘int’ [-Wimplicit-int]
1 | main() { for (;;); }

$ perf record ./a.out
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]

$ mv foo bar
$ perf annotate
