When peek an event, it has a short path and a long path.  The short path
uses the session pointer "one_mmap_addr" to directly fetch event; and
the long path needs to read out the event header and the followed event
data from file and fill into the buffer pointer passed through the
argument "buf".

The issue is in the long path that it copies the event header and event
data into the same destination address which pointer "buf", this means
the event header is overwritten.  We are just lucky to run into the
short path in most cases, so we don't hit the issue in the long path.

This patch adds the offset "hdr_sz" to the pointer "buf" when copying
the event data, so that it can reserve the event header which can be
used properly by its caller.
