perf symbols: Remove perf_session usage in symbols layer

I noticed while writing the first test in 'perf regtest' that to
just test the symbol handling routines one needs to create a
perf session, that is a layer centered on a perf.data file,
events, etc, so I untied these layers.

This reduces the complexity for the users as the number of
parameters to most of the symbols and session APIs now was
reduced while not adding more state to all the map instances by
only having data that is needed to split the kernel (kallsyms
and ELF symtab sections) maps and do vmlinux relocation on the
main kernel map.
