perf probe: Do not use dwfl_module_addrsym if dwarf_diename finds symbol name

Do not use dwfl_module_addrsym if dwarf_diename can find the symbol
name, since dwfl_module_addrsym can be failed on shared libraries.

Without this patch
  ----
  $ perf probe -x ../lib/traceevent/libtraceevent.so -V create_arg_op
  Failed to find symbol at 0x11df1
  Failed to find the address of create_arg_op
    Error: Failed to show vars.
  ----
With this patch
  ----
  $ perf probe -x ../lib/traceevent/libtraceevent.so -V create_arg_op
  Available variables at create_arg_op
          @<create_arg_op+0>
                  enum filter_op_type     btype
                  struct filter_arg*      arg
