perf trace: Fix off by ones in memset() after realloc() in arches using libaudit

'perf trace ls' started crashing after commit d21cb73a on
!HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT configs (armv7l here) like this:

  0  strlen () at ../sysdeps/arm/armv6t2/strlen.S:126
  1  0xb6800780 in __vfprintf_internal (s=0xbeff9908, s@entry=0xbeff9900, format=0xa27160 "]: %s()", ap=..., mode_flags=<optimized out>) at vfprintf-internal.c:1688
  ...
  5  0x0056ecdc in fprintf (__fmt=0xa27160 "]: %s()", __stream=<optimized out>) at /usr/include/bits/stdio2.h:100
  6  trace__sys_exit (trace=trace@entry=0xbeffc710, evsel=evsel@entry=0xd968d0, event=<optimized out>, sample=sample@entry=0xbeffc3e8) at builtin-trace.c:2475
  7  0x00566d40 in trace__handle_event (sample=0xbeffc3e8, event=<optimized out>, trace=0xbeffc710) at builtin-trace.c:3122
  ...
  15 main (argc=2, argv=0xbefff6e8) at perf.c:538

It is because memset in trace__read_syscall_info zeroes wrong memory:

1) when initializing for the first time, it does not reset the last id.

2) in other cases, it resets the last id of previous buffer.

ad 1) it causes the crash above as sc->name used in the fprintf above
      contains garbage.

ad 2) it sets nonexistent from true back to false for id 11 here. Not
      sure, what the consequences are.

So fix it by introducing a special case for the initial initialization
and do the right +1 in both cases.

Fixes: d21cb73a
