In trace_probe_match_command_args(), a stack buffer buf[MAX_ARGSTR_LEN + 1]
(256 bytes) is used to format "<name>=<comm>". However, since name can
be up to 32 bytes (MAX_ARG_NAME_LEN) and comm up to 255 bytes
(MAX_ARGSTR_LEN), the formatted string can exceed 256 bytes and get
truncated by snprintf(), causing spurious argument matching failures.

Instead of formatting into a temporary buffer on stack, compare the
argument name, the '=' delimiter, and the comm expression directly.
