Subject: [patch] perf: tui: Fix segfault when drawing out-of-bounds jumps

Hi,

When perf.data contains out-of-symbol jumps,
annotate_browser__mark_jump_targets() correctly avoids marking
out-of-symbol jump targets. However, when moving the cursor on one of
said jumps, annotate_browser__draw_current_jump() will end up with a
bogus 'target' pointer, causing a bogus memory access when dereferencing
'bcursor' or 'btarget'

The following patch performs the same check as mark_jump_targets()
in order to avoid drawing the bogus jump.

Regards,
Frederik
