tracing/kprobes: Fix handling of argument names 

Set "argN" name for each argument automatically if it has no specified name.
Since dynamic trace event(kprobe_events) accepts special characters for its
argument, its format can show those special characters (e.g. '$', '%', '+').
However, perf can't parse those format because of the character (especially
'%') mess up the format.  This sets "argX" name for those arguments if user
omitted the argument names.

E.g.
 # echo 'p do_fork %ax IP=%ip $stack' > tracing/kprobe_events
 # cat tracing/kprobe_events
 p:kprobes/p_do_fork_0 do_fork arg1=%ax IP=%ip arg3=$stack
