perf tests record: No need to test an array against NULL

It will always evaluate to 'true', as clang warns:

    CC       /tmp/build/perf/tests/perf-record.o
    CC       /tmp/build/perf/tests/evsel-roundtrip-name.o
  tests/perf-record.c:69:24: error: comparison of array 'argv' equal to a null pointer is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-pointer-compare]
          if (evlist == NULL || argv == NULL) {
                                ^~~~    ~~~~
