Subject: [PATCH v1 3/4] perf cs-etm: Optimize copying last branches

If an instruction range packet can generate multiple instruction
samples, these samples share the same last branches; it's not necessary
to copy the same last branches repeatedly for these samples within the
same packet.

This patch moves out the last branches copying from function
cs_etm__synth_instruction_sample(), and execute it once prior to
generating instruction samples.
