perf test: Fix unaligned access in sample parsing test
[ Upstream commit c5c97cadd7ed13381cb6b4bef5c841a66938d350 ]
The ubsan reported the following error. It was because sample's raw
data missed u32 padding at the end. So it broke the alignment of the
array after it.
The raw data contains an u32 size prefix so the data size should have
an u32 padding after 8-byte aligned data.
27: Sample parsing :util/synthetic-events.c:1539:4:
runtime error: store to misaligned address 0x62100006b9bc for type
'__u64' (aka 'unsigned long long'), which requires 8 byte alignment
0x62100006b9bc: note: pointer points here
