perf bpf: Remove undefined behavior from bpf_perf_object__next()

bpf_perf_object__next() folded the last element in the list test with the
empty list test. However, this meant that offsets were computed against
null and that a struct list_head was compared against a 'struct
bpf_perf_object'.

Working around this with clang's undefined behavior sanitizer required
-fno-sanitize=null and -fno-sanitize=object-size.

Remove the undefined behavior by using the regular Linux list APIs and
handling the starting case separately from the end testing case.

Looking at uses like bpf_perf_object__for_each(), as the constant NULL
or non-NULL argument can be constant propagated, the code is no less
efficient.
