Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 4d1e00a8af 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:

[root@doppio tuna]# ls -la /usr/lib64/{xulrunner-1.9.1/xulrunner-stub,firefox-3.5.2/firefox}
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 90024 2009-08-03 19:45 /usr/lib64/firefox-3.5.2/firefox
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 90024 2009-08-03 18:23 /usr/lib64/xulrunner-1.9.1/xulrunner-stub

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.
