perf probe: Fix segfault if passed with ''.

Since parse_perf_probe_point() deals with a user passed argument, we

This patch checks argument of parse_perf_probe_point() before
string processing.

After this patch:

 $ perf probe -a ''

  usage: perf probe [<options>] 'PROBEDEF' ['PROBEDEF' ...]
     or: perf probe [<options>] --add 'PROBEDEF' [--add 'PROBEDEF' ...]
