ASan reported a memory leak caused by info_linear not being
deallocated. The info_linear was allocated during
perf_event__synthesize_one_bpf_prog.
This patch adds the corresponding free() when bpf_prog_info_node
is freed in perf_env__purge_bpf.

$ sudo ./perf record -- sleep 5
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.025 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]
