perf symbols: Record text offset in dso to calculate objdump address

In this patch, the offset of '.text' section is stored into dso
and used here to re-calculate address to objdump.

In most of the cases, executable code is in '.text' section, so the
adjustment made to a symbol in dso__load_sym (using
sym.st_value -= shdr.sh_addr - shdr.sh_offset) should equal to
'sym.st_value -= dso->text_offset'. Therefore, adding text_offset back
get objdump address from symbol address (rip). However, it is not true
for kernel and kernel module since there could be multiple executable
sections with different offset. Exclude kernel for this reason.

After this patch, even dso->adjust_symbols is set to true for shared
objects, map__rip_2objdump() and map__objdump_2mem() would return
correct result, so perf behavior of annotate won't be changed.
