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.
