Sangwon Hong de71128688 perf kallsyms: Fix the usage on the man page
First, all man pages highlight only perf and subcommands except 'perf
kallsyms', which includes the full usage. Fix it for commands to
monopolize underlines.

Second, options can be ommited when executing 'perf kallsyms', so add
square brackets between <option>.
