perf srcline: Make sentinel reading for binutils addr2line more robust
The addr2line process is sent an address then multiple function,
filename:line "records" are read. To detect the end of output a ',' is
sent and for llvm-addr2line a ',' is then read back showing the end of
addrline's output.
For binutils addr2line the ',' translates to address 0 and we expect the
bogus filename marker "??:0" (see filename_split) to be sent from
addr2line.
For some kernels address 0 may have a mapping and so a seemingly valid
inline output is given and breaking the sentinel discovery:
```
$ addr2line -e vmlinux -f -i
,
__per_cpu_start
./arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:1850
```
To avoid this problem enable the address dumping for addr2line (the -a
option). If an address of 0x0000000000000000 is read then this is the
sentinel value working around the problem above.
The filename_split still needs to check for "??:0" as bogus non-zero
addresses also need handling.
