perf record: Lazy load kernel symbols

Browse Source 
Commit 5b7ba82a75 ("perf symbols: Load kernel maps before using")
changed it so that loading a kernel DSO would cause the symbols for the
DSO to be eagerly loaded.

For 'perf record' this is overhead as the symbols won't be used. Add a
field to 'struct symbol_conf' to control the behavior and disable it for
'perf record' and 'perf inject'.
