[PATCH 6/7] perf tools: Do not need to read symbols for source line lookup

[Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>]

When using libbfd to lookup source filename and line number,
libbfd does not need the symbol table.  Removing the symbol
table reading, doubles the speed of 'perf script' with the
'srcline' option.
