perf report: Provide libtraceevent with a kernel symbol resolver

Browse Source 
So that beautifiers wanting to resolve kernel function addresses to
names can do its work, and when we use "perf report" for output of "perf
kmem record", we will get kernel symbol output.

This patch affect the output of "perf report" for the record data
generated by "perf kmem record" looks like below:

Before patch:

After patch:
