[PATCH 2/6] perf buildid: do not assume that readlink() returns a null terminated string

[Tommi Rantala]

Valgrind was complaining:

  $ valgrind ./perf list >/dev/null
  ==11643== Memcheck, a memory error detector

  [...]

Additionally, a zero length result from readlink() is not very interesting.
