perf trace: Allow overriding global --max-stack per event

The per-event max-stack setting wasn't overriding the global --max-stack
setting:

  # perf trace --no-syscalls --max-stack 4 -e probe_libc:inet_pton/call-graph=dwarf,max-stack=2/ ping -6 -c 1 ::1
  PING ::1(::1) 56 data bytes
  64 bytes from ::1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.072 ms

  --- ::1 ping statistics ---
  1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
  rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.072/0.072/0.072/0.000 ms
       0.000 probe_libc:inet_pton:(7feb7a998350))
                                         __inet_pton (inlined)
                                         gaih_inet.constprop.7 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
                                         __GI_getaddrinfo (inlined)
                                         [0xffffaa39b6108f3f] (/usr/bin/ping)
  #

Fix it:

  # perf trace --no-syscalls --max-stack 4 -e probe_libc:inet_pton/call-graph=dwarf,max-stack=2/ ping -6 -c 1 ::1
  PING ::1(::1) 56 data bytes
  64 bytes from ::1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.073 ms

  --- ::1 ping statistics ---
  1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
  rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.073/0.073/0.073/0.000 ms
       0.000 probe_libc:inet_pton:(7f1083221350))
                                         __inet_pton (inlined)
                                         gaih_inet.constprop.7 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
