[PATCH 1/4] perf symbols: add dso__insert_symbol function

[Chris Phlipot]

The current method for inserting symbols is to use the symbols__insert
function. However symbols__insert does not update the dso symbol cache.
This causes problems in the following scenario:

1. symbol not found at ip using dso__find_symbol

2. symbol inserted at ip using the existing symbols__insert function

3. symbol still not found at ip using dso__find_symbol because cache isn't
updated. This is undesired behavior.

The undesired behavior in (3) is addressed by creating a new function,
dso__insert_symbol to both insert the symbol and update the symbol cache
if necessary.

If dso__insert_symbol is used in (2) instead of symbols__insert, then the
undesired behavior in (3) is avoided.
