perf probe: Set retprobe flag when probe in address-based alternative mode

When perf probe searched in a debuginfo file and failed, it tried with
an alternative, in function get_alternative_probe_event():

        memcpy(tmp, &pev->point, sizeof(*tmp));
        memset(&pev->point, 0, sizeof(pev->point));

In this case, it drops the retprobe flag and forgets to set it back in
find_alternative_probe_point(), so the problem occurs.

Can be reproduced as following:

  $ perf probe -v -k vmlinux --add='sys_write%return'
  ...
  Added new event:
  Writing event: p:probe/sys_write _stext+1584952
    probe:sys_write      (on sys_write%return)

  $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
  p:probe/sys_write _stext+1584952

After this patch:

  $ perf probe -v -k vmlinux --add='sys_write%return'
  Added new event:
  Writing event: r:probe/sys_write SyS_write+0
    probe:sys_write      (on sys_write%return)

  $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
  r:probe/sys_write SyS_write
