perf tools: Automatically use guest kcore_dir if present

When registering a guest machine using machine_pid from the id index,
check perf.data for a matching kcore_dir subdirectory and set the
kallsyms file name accordingly. If set, use it to find the machine's
kernel symbols and object code (from kcore).
