Subject: [PATCH 0/2] perf: add missing evlist__delete when deleting

ASan reports a memory leak caused by evlist not being deleted on exit in
perf-report and perf-script.
The problem is caused by evlist__delete not being called before
perf_session__delete, since the latter does not delete the evlist too.
These two patches add the missing deletes in both perf-report and 
perf-script.

ASan report follows:
