perf record: Fix filemap pathname parsing in /proc/pid/maps

Looking backward for the first space from the end of a line in
/proc/pid/maps does not find the start of the pathname of the mapped
file if it contains a space.

Since the only slashes we have in this file occur in the (absolute!)
pathname column of file mappings, looking for the first slash in a
line is a safe method to find the name.
