perf test record+probe_libc_inet_pton: Make test resilient

The test failed back and forth due to the call chain being heavily
impacted by the libc, which varies across different architectures and
distros.

The libc contains the symbols for "gaih_inet" and "getaddrinfo" in some
cases, but not always.  Moreover, these symbols can be either normal
symbols or dynamic symbols, making it difficult to decide the call chain
entries due to the symbols are inconsistent.

To fix the issue, this commit identifies three call chain entries are
always present.  These entries are matched by iterating through the
lines in the "perf script" result.  The recording attribute max-stack is
set to 4 for the possible maximum call chain depth.

After:
