Right, it's not strictly necessary. While perf inject -b can synthesize
some build-id events but it also doesn't require this even with the
patch 3.
Originally I thought this might be a good place to add something
we want to do for synthesis. But I only need it for DSO build-IDs
in MMAP2 and we can remove it from other places.

Oh, right. I thought it's handled during exec but it seems
switch-output things need it additionally. Will add.

Yeah, I don't have a strong need for it. I just added it in case
we need something for synthesis later. But I will remove it
if you don't think it's worth it.
