perf probe: Support a special SDT probe format

Support a special SDT probe format which can omit the '%' prefix only if
the SDT group name starts with "sdt_". So, for example both of
"%sdt_libc:setjump" and "sdt_libc:setjump" are acceptable for perf probe
--add.

E.g. without this:

  # perf probe -a sdt_libc:setjmp
  Semantic error :There is non-digit char in line number.
  ...

With this:

  # perf probe -a sdt_libc:setjmp
  Added new event:
    sdt_libc:setjmp      (on %setjmp in /usr/lib64/libc-2.20.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

  	perf record -e sdt_libc:setjmp -aR sleep 1
