perf evsel: Make perf_evsel__name() accept a NULL argument
In which case it simply returns "unknown", like when it can't figure out the evsel->name value. This makes this code more robust and fixes a problem in 'perf trace' where a NULL evsel was being passed to a routine that only used the evsel for printing its name when a invalid syscall id was passed.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
