perf tests: Fix dwarf unwind for stripped binaries

When we strip the perf binary, dwarf unwind test stop
to work. The reason is that strip will remove static
function symbols, which we need to check for unwind.

This change will keep this test working in cases where
the global symbols are put into dynamic symbol table,
which is the case on x86. It still won't work on powerpc.

Making those 5 local functions global, and adding
'test_dwarf_unwind__' to their names.

Committer testing:

Before:

# perf test dwarf
58: DWARF unwind : Ok
# strip ~/bin/perf
# perf test dwarf
58: DWARF unwind : FAILED!
# perf test -v dwarf
58: DWARF unwind :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 6590
unwind: thread map already set, dso=/home/acme/bin/perf
<SNIP>
unwind: access_mem addr 0x7ffce6c48098 val 48563f, offset 1144
unwind: test__dwarf_unwind:ip = 0x4a54e5 (0xa54e5)
got: test__dwarf_unwind 0xa54e5, expecting test__dwarf_unwind
unwind: '':ip = 0x4a50bb (0xa50bb)
failed: got unresolved address 0xa50bb
unwind failed
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
DWARF unwind: FAILED!
#

After:

# perf test dwarf
58: DWARF unwind : Ok
# strip ~/bin/perf
# perf test dwarf
58: DWARF unwind : Ok
#
# perf test -v dwarf
58: DWARF unwind :

unwind: test_dwarf_unwind__thread:ip = 0x4a52f7 (0xa52f7)

got: test_dwarf_unwind__krava_3 0xa54d1, expecting test_dwarf_unwind__krava_3
unwind: test_dwarf_unwind__krava_2:ip = 0x4a550b (0xa550b)
got: test_dwarf_unwind__krava_2 0xa550b, expecting test_dwarf_unwind__krava_2

got: test_dwarf_unwind__krava_1 0xa554b, expecting test_dwarf_unwind__krava_1
unwind: test__dwarf_unwind:ip = 0x4a5605 (0xa5605)
got: test__dwarf_unwind 0xa5605, expecting test__dwarf_unwind
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
DWARF unwind: Ok
