perf annotate: Allow disassembly using /proc/kcore
Annotation with /proc/kcore is possible so the logic is adjusted to allow it. The main difference is that /proc/kcore had no symbols so the parsing logic needed a tweak to read jump offsets. The other difference is that objdump cannot always read from kcore. That seems to be a bug with objdump.
