perf probe: Add group name support
Allow user to set group name for adding new event. Note that user must ensure that the group name doesn't conflict with existing group name carefully. E.g. Existing group name can conflict with other events. Especially, using the group name reserved for kernel modules can hide kernel embedded events when loading modules.
