[PATCH V2 9/9] perf symbols: Get symbols for .plt.got for x86-64

From: Adrian Hunter
Date: Tue Jan 31 2023 - 08:17:25 EST


For x86_64, determine a symbol for .plt.got entries. That requires
computing the target offset and finding that in .rela.dyn, which in
turn means .rela.dyn needs to be sorted by offset.

Example:

In this example, the GNU C Library is using .plt.got for malloc and
free.
