perf kmem: Fix memory leaks on error path and when skipping

Fix memory leaks on the error paths and skipped sample handling paths
in the perf kmem tool.

Ensure that all allocated GFP flags and thread references are properly freed and
released via thread__put() when skipping samples or encountering parsing failures,
preventing long-term memory usage leaks during large trace analyses.
