[PATCH] perf symbols: Ignore mapping symbols on riscv

[Haibo Xu]

RISCV ELF use mapping symbols with special names $x, $d to
identify regions of RISCV code or code with different ISAs[1].
These symbols don't identify functions, so will confuse the
perf output.

The patch filters out these symbols at load time, similar to
"4886f2ca perf symbols: Ignore mapping symbols on aarch64".
