Subject: [PATCH v2] perf: Adjust perf-inject output data offset for backward compatibility

When perf inject creates a new file, it reuses the data offset from the
input file. If there has been a change on the size of the header, as
happened in v5.12 -> v5.13, the new offsets will be wrong, resulting in
a corrupted output file.

This change adds the function perf_session__data_offset to compute the
data offset based on the current header size, and uses that instead of
the offset from the original input file.

Signed-off-by: Raul Silvera <rsilvera@...gle.com>

Changes since v1:
 - Use the adjusted header->data_offset in do_write_header instead of
   recomputing it.
