If we take this __falltrough because cnode->sym or cnode->ms.sym is
NULL, then cnode->ms.map may be NULL if we got a sample for which we
somehow couldn't find a map.

And we don't really need to deal with DSOs, just with MAPs, to go from
relative to absolute when we _have_ a symbol resolved, cnode->ip and
node->ip are already absolute.

Ok, below is this patch updated on top of my previous patch, please take
a look, I'll be adding all this to my tmp.perf/core branch, holler if
you disagree on moving it to perf/core, which I'd like to do soon.

    perf report: Properly handle branch count in match_chain()
    
    Some of the code paths I introduced before returned too early without
    running the code to handle a node's branch count.  By refactoring
    match_chain to only have one exit point, this can be remedied.
