Milian Wolff 6754075915 perf unwind: Use addr_location::addr instead of ip for entries

This fixes the srcline translation for call chains of user space
applications.

Before we got:

    perf report --stdio --no-children -s sym,srcline -g address
     8.92%  [.] main                                 mandelbrot.h:41

                       main +8390224

With this patch applied, we instead get:

    perf report --stdio --no-children -s sym,srcline -g address
