Add --output (-o) option to write probe-definition commands
in a standard file (or the stdout if '-' is given) instead
of tracing/*probe_events.
This allows user to add events in a remote machine by
sending the saved command file to the machine.

In absence of -m/-x options, perf probe checks if the first argument after
the options is an absolute path name. If its an absolute path, perf probe
uses it as a target module/target user space binary to probe.
