perf hists browser: Increase MAX_OPTIONS to prevent stack buffer overflow
In evsel__hists_browse(), the 'options' and 'actions' arrays are statically allocated on the stack with a size of MAX_OPTIONS (16). Further down, the function sequentially calls several add_*_opt() functions, which increment nr_options without bounds checking. Depending on the context (e.g., branch mode, scripting, annotations), the sum of added options can theoretically exceed 16 (potentially reaching up to ~19). This could lead to a stack buffer overflow. Increase MAX_OPTIONS to 32 to safely accommodate the maximum possible number of options without risking an overflow.
