perf session: Fail on processing event with unknown size
Currently if we cannot decide the size of the event, we guess next
event possition by:
"... check alignment, and increment a single u64 in the hope
to catch on again 'soon'"
This usually ends up with segfault or endless loop. It's better
to admit the failure right away, then pretend nothing happened.
It makes the life easier ;)
