perf annotate-data: Invalidate caller-saved regs for all calls
Previously, the x86 call handler returned early without invalidating caller-saved registers when the call target symbol could not be resolved (func == NULL). This violated the ABI which requires caller-saved registers to be considered clobbered after any call instruction. Fix this by: 1. Always invalidating caller-saved registers for any call instruction (except __fentry__ which preserves registers) 2. Using dl->ops.target.name as fallback when func->name is unavailable, allowing return type lookup for more call targets This is a conservative change that may reduce type coverage for indirect calls (e.g., callq *(%rax)) where we cannot determine the return type but it ensures correctness.
