perf symbol: Fix symbol parsing in certain cases: use the build-id as a symlink
In some cases distros have binaries and debuginfo in weird places:

Seemingly we don't have a .symtab when we actually can find it
if we use the .note.gnu.build-id ELF section put in place by
some distros. Use it and find the symbols we need.
