2012-08-13perf symbols: Avoid segfault in elf_strptrCody P Schafer
If we call elf_section_by_name() with a truncated elf image (ie: the file header indicates that the section headers are placed past the end of the file), elf_strptr() causes a segfault within libelf. Avoid this by checking that we can access the section string table properly. Should really be fixed in libelf/elfutils.

2012-08-13perf symbols: Don't try to synthesize plt without dynstrCody P Schafer
If .dynsym exists but .dynstr is empty (NO_BITS or size==0), a segfault occurs. Avoid this by checking that .dynstr is not empty.

2012-08-13perf symbols: Only un-prelink non-zero symbolsCody P Schafer
Prelink only adjusts the addresses of non-zero symbols. Do the same when we reverse the adjustments.

2012-08-09perf symbols: Split out util/symbol-elf.cNamhyung Kim
Factor out the dependency of ELF handling into separate symbol-elf.c file. It is a preparation of building a minimalistic version perf tools which doesn't depend on the elfutils.
