kallsyms__parse is called 4 times during perf record startup. Add a
benchmark to measure its performance. Transition it to using the api
io.h buffered reading, improving performance by ~8% or saving ~5% from
perf record start up time.

v2. Fix the err return value for success, error reported by
    jolsa@redhat.com. Add clean-up for hex2u64.
