Hmm, I found there are 3 issues in perf-probe to define event on C++ libs.

1) No mangle/demangle symbol support. This needs a) fix option parser to
accept C++ method name correctly, b) mangle that method, and c) demangle
it when we show the probe point.

2) @plt symbol should be skipped since the real function will be called(jumped)
from plt, when searching probe point.

3) Event group name is including some characters which can not be used (e.g. "++").
Thus we have to remove it or replace it with '_' or other alphabet.("PP"?)

Thank you,
