[PATCH 1/2] perf: convert: fix duplicate field names.

[Wang Nan]

Some parameters of syscall tracepoints named as 'nr', 'event', etc.
When dealing with them, perf convert to ctf meets some problems:

 1. If a parameter with name 'nr', it duplicate syscall's
    common field 'nr'. One example syscall is io_submit().

 2. If a parameter with name 'event', it is denied to be inserted
    because 'event' is a babeltrace keywork. One example syscall
    is epoll_ctl().

This patch appends '_dupl_X' postfix for those fields to avoid
these problems.
