perf evsel: Propagate error info from tp_format
Propagate error info from tp_format via ERR_PTR to get it all the way
down to the parse-event.c tracepoint adding routines. Following
functions now return pointer with encoded error:
- tp_format
- trace_event__tp_format
- perf_evsel__newtp_idx
- perf_evsel__newtp
This affects several other places in perf, that cannot use pointer check
anymore, but must utilize the err.h interface, when getting error
information from above functions list.
