perf probe: Find given address from offline dwarf



Find the given address from offline dwarfs instead of online kernel
dwarfs.

On the KASLR enabled kernel, the kernel text section is loaded with
random offset, and the debuginfo__new_online_kernel can't handle it. So
let's move to the offline dwarf loader instead of using the online dwarf
loader.

As a result, since we don't need debuginfo__new_online_kernel any more,
this also removes the functions related to that.

Without this change;

  # ./perf probe -l
    probe:t_show         (on _stext+901288 with m v)
    probe:t_show_1       (on _stext+939624 with m v t)
    probe:t_show_2       (on _stext+980296 with m v fmt)
    probe:t_show_3       (on _stext+1014392 with m v file)

With this change;

  # ./perf probe -l
    probe:t_show         (on t_show@linux-3/kernel/trace/ftrace.c with m v)
    probe:t_show_1       (on t_show@linux-3/kernel/trace/trace.c with m v t)
    probe:t_show_2       (on t_show@kernel/trace/trace_printk.c with m v fmt)
    probe:t_show_3       (on t_show@kernel/trace/trace_events.c with m v file)

Changes from v2:
 - Instead of retrying, directly opens offline dwarf.
 - Remove debuginfo__new_online_kernel and related functions.
 - Refer map->reloc to get the correct address of a symbol.
 - Add a special case for handling ref_reloc_sym based address.
