perf tools: Fix comment for sort__* compare functions

In commit 2f15bd8c6c ("perf tools: Fix "Command" sort_entry's cmp and
collapse function") we switched from pointer to string comparison.

But failed to remove related comments. Removing them and adding another
one to warn before pointer comparison in here.
