perf test: Make test_arm_callgraph_fp.sh more robust
The 2 second sleep can cause the test to fail on very slow network file systems because Perf ends up being killed before it finishes starting up. Fix it by making the leafloop workload end after a fixed time like the other workloads so there is no need to kill it after 2 seconds. Also remove the 1 second start sampling delay because it is similarly fragile. Instead, search through all samples for a matching one, rather than just checking the first sample and hoping it's in the right place.
