Without this patch, perf report cause segfault if pass "" as '-t':

  $ perf report -t ""

    # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only 
options.
    #
    # Samples: 37  of event 'syscalls:sys_enter_write'
    # Event count (approx.): 37
    #
    # Children    SelfCommand   Shared Object         Symbol
    Segmentation fault

This patch avoid the segfault by checking empty string for
'symbol_conf.field_sep'.
