ASan reports a memory leak caused by evlist not being deleted on exit in
perf-report, perf-script and perf-data.
The problem is caused by evlist->session not being deleted, which is
allocated in perf_session__read_header, called in perf_session__new if
perf_data is in read mode.
In case of write mode, the session->evlist is filled by the caller.
This patch solves the problem by calling evlist__delete in
perf_session__delete if perf_data is in read mode.

Changes in v2:
 - call evlist__delete from within perf_session__delete

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210621234317.235545-1-rickyman7@gmail.com/

ASan report follows:

Acked-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>

It is messy that in read mode the session owns the evlist, but
otherwise not. Imo, it'd be nice to make the ownership unconditional.

Thanks,
Ian

ugh, I'm surprised we did not free that.. and can't find
in git log we ever did ;-) I briefly check commands using
sessions and looks like it's correct

I think the root problem is that perf_session__new has different behaviours
depending on perf_data and perf_tool and that it probably does too many things
for a __new function.
If we split it into multiple functions and then, say, we create two helpers
perf_session__init_read and perf_session__init_write, with the corresponding
perf_session__fini_read and perf_session__fini_write, then the conditional
ownership won't be a big problem due to having these two cases clearly
separated.
What do you think?

Thanks,
Riccardo
