perf probe: Show better error message when failed to find variable
Indicate to check variable location range in error message when we got failed to find the variable. Before this patch: $ perf probe --add 'generic_perform_write+118 bytes' Failed to find the location of bytes at this address. Perhaps, it has been optimized out. Error: Failed to add events. After this patch: $ perf probe --add 'generic_perform_write+118 bytes' Failed to find the location of the 'bytes' variable at this address. Perhaps it has been optimized out. Use -V with the --range option to show 'bytes' location range. Error: Failed to add events.
