perf annotate: Remove duplicate 'name' field from disasm_line
The disasm_line::name field is always equal to ins::name, being used just to locate the instruction's ins_ops from the per-arch instructions table. Eliminate this duplication, nuking that field and instead make ins__find() return an ins_ops, store it in disasm_line::ins.ops, and keep just in disasm_line::ins.name what was in disasm_line::name, this way we end up not keeping a reference to entries in the per-arch instructions table. This in turn will help supporting multiple ways to manage the per-arch instructions table, allowing resorting that array, for instance, when the entries will move after references to its addresses were made. The same problem is avoided when one grows the array with realloc. So architectures simply keeping a constant array will work as well as architectures building the table using regular expressions or other logic that involves resorting the table.
