perf kwork: Fix memory management of kwork_work

This commit addresses several memory management issues in builtin-kwork.c:

1. Implements a global cleanup function perf_kwork__exit to free all
   kwork_work and kwork_atom_page objects at the end of the command.

2. Ensures all 'name' fields in struct kwork_work are malloc-ed (or NULL)
   and properly freed by using strdup and zfree.

3. Fixes memory leaks in top_merge_tasks where kwork_work objects were
   dropped without being freed.

4. Adds robustness with NULL checks for name fields.

5. Fixes workqueue_work_init to correctly resolve and strdup kernel
   function names, preventing bad-free errors.
