perf intel-pt: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference found by the smatch tool

Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the potential NULL
pointer dereference check.

tools/perf/util/intel-pt.c:3200
intel_pt_process_auxtrace_info() error: we previously assumed
'session->itrace_synth_opts' could be null (see line 3196)

tools/perf/util/intel-pt.c:3206
intel_pt_process_auxtrace_info() warn: variable dereferenced before
check 'session->itrace_synth_opts' (see line 3200)

tools/perf/util/intel-pt.c
3196 if (session->itrace_synth_opts && session->itrace_synth_opts->set) {
3197 pt->synth_opts = *session->itrace_synth_opts;
3198 } else {
3199 itrace_synth_opts__set_default(&pt->synth_opts,
3200 session->itrace_synth_opts->default_no_sample);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3201 if (!session->itrace_synth_opts->default_no_sample &&
3202 !session->itrace_synth_opts->inject) {
3203 pt->synth_opts.branches = false;
3204 pt->synth_opts.callchain = true;
3205 }
3206 if (session->itrace_synth_opts)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3207 pt->synth_opts.thread_stack =
3208 session->itrace_synth_opts->thread_stack;
3209 }

'session->itrace_synth_opts' is impossible to be a NULL pointer in
intel_pt_process_auxtrace_info(), thus this patch removes the NULL test
for 'session->itrace_synth_opts'.
