perf symbols: Read plt symbols from proper symtab_type binary
When loading symbols from DSO we check multiple paths of DSO binary until we succeed to load symbols ('.symtab' section). Once symbols are read we try to load also plt symbols. During the reading of plt symbols, the dso file is reopened from location given by dso->long_name. This could be wrong in case we want process buildid binaries. The change is to make the plt symbols being read from the DSO path, that normal symbols were read from.
