perf trace: Provide libtracevent with a kernel symbol resolver

So that beautifiers wanting to resolve kernel function addresses to
names can do its work, now, for instance, the 'timer' tracepoints
beautifiers works with 'perf trace', see the "function=tick..." part:

 # perf trace --event timer:hrtimer_start
<SNIP>
  0.000 timer:hrtimer_start:hrtimer=0xffff88026f3101c0 function=tick_sched_timer/0x0 expires=52098339000000 softexpires=52098339000000)
  0.003 timer:hrtimer_start:hrtimer=0xffff88026f3101c0 function=tick_sched_timer/0x0 expires=52098339000000 softexpires=52098339000000)
<SNIP>
