perf report: Use srcline from callchain for hist entries
This also removes the symbol name from the srcline column, more on this
below.
This ensures we use the correct srcline, which could originate from a
potentially inlined function. The hist entries used to query for the
srcline based purely on the IP, which leads to wrong results for inlined
entries.
Before:
~~~~~
perf report --inline -s srcline -g none --stdio

Note that this change removes the symbol from the source:line hist
column. If this information is desired, users should explicitly query
for it if needed. I.e. run this command instead:

Compared to the old behavior, this reduces duplication in the output.
Before we used to print the symbol name in the srcline column even
when the sym column was explicitly requested. I.e. the output was:
