[PATCH V2 1/2] tools/perf: Add text_end to "struct dso" to save .text section size

[Athira Rajeev]

Update "struct dso" to include new member "text_end".
This new field will represent the offset for end of text
section for a dso. This value is derived as:
sh_size (Size of section in byes) + sh_offset (Section file
offst) of the elf header for text.

To resolve the address from a sample, perf looks at the
DSO maps. In case of address from a kernel module, there
were some address found to be not resolved. This was
observed while running perf test for "Object code reading".
Though the ip falls beteen the start address of the loaded
module (perf map->start ) and end address ( perf map->end),
it was unresolved.

Example:

    Reading object code for memory address: 0xc008000007f0142c
    File is: /lib/modules/6.5.0-rc3+/kernel/fs/xfs/xfs.ko
    On file address is: 0x1114cc
    Objdump command is: objdump -z -d --start-address=0x11142c --stop-address=0x1114ac /lib/modules/6.5.0-rc3+/kernel/fs/xfs/xfs.ko
    objdump read too few bytes: 128
    test child finished with -1

Here, module is loaded at:
    # cat /proc/modules | grep xfs
    xfs 2228224 3 - Live 0xc008000007d00000

>From objdump for xfs module, text section is:
    text 0010f7bc  0000000000000000 0000000000000000 000000a0 2**4

Here the offset for 0xc008000007f0142c ie  0x112074 falls out
.text section which is up to 0x10f7bc.

In this case for module, the address 0xc008000007e11fd4 is pointing
to stub instructions. This address range represents the module stubs
which is allocated on module load and hence is not part of DSO offset.

To identify such  address, which falls out of text
section and within module end, added the new field "text_end" to
"struct dso".
