Subject: [PATCH] perf annotate: check that objdump correctly works

Before disassembling, the tool objdump is called just to be sure:
* objdump is available in the path;
* objdump is an executable binary;
* objdump has no dependency issue or anything else.

This objdump "pre-"command is only necessary because the real objdump
command is followed by some " | grep ..."; this prevents the shell
from returning the exit code of objdump execution.
