perf tools: Use the "_stest" symbol to identify the kernel map when loading kcore

The first symbol is not necessarily in the kernel text.  Instead of
using the first symbol, use the _stest symbol to identify the kernel map
when loading kcore.

This allows for the introduction of symbols to identify the x86_64 PTI
entry trampolines.
