perf llvm: Don't access out-of-scope array

The 'test_dir' variable is assigned to the 'release' array which is
out-of-scope 3 lines later.

Extend the scope of the 'release' array so that an out-of-scope array
isn't accessed.

Bug detected by clang's address sanitizer.

Fixes: 07bc5c699a3d ("perf tools: Make fetch_kernel_version() publicly available")
