[PATCH v2] tools: perf: tests: Fix code reading for riscv

[Charlie Jenkins]

After binutils commit e43d876 which was first included in binutils 2.41,
riscv no longer supports dumping in the middle of instructions. Increase
the objdump window by 2-bytes to ensure that any instruction that sits
on the boundary of the specified stop-address is not cut in half.

A binutils patch has been sent as well to fix this in objdump [1].

Changes in v2:
- Do objdump version detection at runtime (Ian)
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241216-perf_fix_riscv_obj_reading-v1-0-b75962660a9b@rivosinc.com
