Miguel Martín Gil 167bef4df6 perf util: Fix perf_exe() buffer write past end
perf_exe() passes len to readlink() and then unconditionally writes a
trailing NUL at buf[n]. If readlink() returns len, the write lands one
byte past the buffer.

Read at most len - 1 bytes and keep the existing NUL termination. Also
guard the fallback path for tiny buffers so copying "perf" cannot
overflow.
