perf probe: Support SDT markers having reference counter (semaphore)

With this, perf buildid-cache will save SDT markers with reference
counter in probe cache. Perf probe will be able to probe markers
having reference counter. Ex,

  # readelf -n /tmp/tick | grep -A1 loop2
    Name: loop2
    ... Semaphore: 0x0000000010020036

  # ./perf buildid-cache --add /tmp/tick
  # ./perf probe sdt_tick:loop2
  # ./perf stat -e sdt_tick:loop2 /tmp/tick
    hi: 0
    hi: 1
    hi: 2
    ^C
     Performance counter stats for '/tmp/tick':
                 3      sdt_tick:loop2
       2.561851452 seconds time elapsed
