perf trace: Handle legacy syscalls tracepoints
Currently the code skips the first field with the expectation that it is 'nr'.
But older kernels do not have the 'nr' field:
field:int nr; offset:8; size:4; signed:1;
Change perf-trace to drop the field if it exists after parsing the format file.
This fixes the off-by-one problem with older kernels (e.g., RHEL6). e.g,
perf-trace shows this for write:
1.515 ( 0.006 ms): dd/4245 write(buf: 2</dev/pts/0>, count:
140733837536224 ) = 26
where 2 is really the fd, the huge number is really the buf address, etc. With
this patch you get the more appropriate:
1.813 ( 0.003 ms): dd/6330 write(fd: 2</dev/pts/0>, buf: 0x7fff22fc81f0, count: 25) = 25
