perf tools: Fix line number in the config file error message
If we fail to parse the config file within the callback function, the line number counter 'could be' already on the next line. This results in wrong line number report like: $ cat ~/.perfconfig [call-graph] sort-key = krava $ perf record ls Fatal: bad config file line 3 in /home/jolsa/.perfconfig Fixing this by saving the current line number for this case.
