perf script python: Fix string vs byte array resolving

Jirka reported that python code returns all arrays as strings.  This
makes impossible to get all items for byte array tracepoint field
containing 0x00 value item.

Fixing this by scanning full length of the array and returning it as
PyByteArray object in case non printable byte is found.
