When printing output we may want to generate per event files, where the
--per-event-dump option should be used, creating perf.data.EVENT.dump
files instead of printing to stdout.
The callback thar processes event thus expects that evsel->priv->fp
should point to either the per-event FILE descriptor or to stdout.
The
a3af66f51bd0bca7 ("perf script: Fix crash because of missing
evsel->priv") changeset fixed a case where evsel->priv wasn't setup,
thus set to NULL, causing a segfault when trying to access
evsel->priv->fp.
But it did it for the non --per-event-dump case by allocating a 'struct
perf_evsel_script' just to set its ->fp to stdout.
Since evsel->priv is only freed when --per-event-dump is used, we ended
up with a memory leak, detected using ASAN.
Fix it by using the same method as perf_script__setup_per_event_dump(),
and reuse that static 'struct perf_evsel_script'.
Also check if evsel_script__new() failed.
