[PATCH v3] tools: perf: tests: Fix code reading for riscv

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].
