perf test powerpc: Fix 'Object code reading' test
'Object code reading' test always fails on powerpc guest. Two reasons for the failure are: 1. When elf section is too big (size beyond 'unsigned int' max value). objdump fails to disassemble from such section. This was fixed with commit 0f6329bd7fc ("binutils/objdump: Fix disassemble for huge elf sections") in binutils. 2. When the sample is from hypervisor. Hypervisor symbols can not be resolved within guest and thus thread__find_addr_map() fails for such symbols. Fix this by ignoring hypervisor symbols in the test.
