perf tools: Stop copying kallsyms into the perf.data file header Since we now ask libtraceevent, the only user of this payload, to use perf's symbol resolution routines, there is no need to carry about ~4.5MB per perf.data when we can get it from one of the places the perf symbol resolution looks for that symtab (debuginfo, ~/.debug/, /proc/kallsyms, --symfs, etc), using the kernel and modules build-ids to make sure the right table is used.
