perf probe: Add --no-inlines option to avoid searching inline functions
Add --no-inlines(--inlines) option to avoid searching inline functions. Searching all functions which matches glob pattern can take a long time and find a lot of inline functions. With this option perf-probe searches target on the non-inlined functions.
