Subject: [PATCH v2 13/14] perf util: do not consider empty files as valid srclines

Sometimes we get a non-null, but empty, string for the filename from
bfd. This then results in srclines of the form ":0", which is
different from the canonical SRCLINE_UNKNOWN in the form "??:0".
Set the file to NULL if it is empty to fix this.
