perf ui: Add search by name/addr to the map__browser

Only in verbose mode so as not to bloat struct symbol too much.

The key used is '/', just like in vi, less, etc.

More work is needed to allocate space on the symbol in a more clear way.

This experiment shows how to do it for the hist_browser, in the main
window.
