If parse_events__scanner() collects no entry, perf_evlist__last(evlist)
is invalid. Then setting of cmdline_group_boundary touches invalid.

It could happend in currect BPF implementation. See [1]. Although it
can be fixed, for safety reason it whould be better to introduce this
check.

Instead of checking number of entries, check data.list instead, so we
can add dummy evsel here.
