perf symbols: Allow for static executables with .plt

A statically linked executable can have a .plt due to IFUNCs, in which
case .symtab is used not .dynsym. Check the section header link to see
if that is the case, and then use symtab instead.

Example:

  Before:

    $ cat tstifunc.c
    #include <stdio.h>

    void thing1(void)
    {
            printf("thing1\n");
    }

    void thing2(void)
    {
            printf("thing2\n");
    }

    typedef void (*thing_fn_t)(void);

    thing_fn_t thing_ifunc(void)
    {
            int x;

            if (x & 1)
                    return thing2;
            return thing1;
    }

    void thing(void) __attribute__ ((ifunc ("thing_ifunc")));

    int main()
    {
            thing();
            return 0;
    }
