perf: Apply is_ignored_kernel_symbol() filter in ELF loading path for kernel DSOs

Browse Source 
dso__load_sym_internal() had no filtering for .L* and L0* mapping
symbols while the kallsyms path already filters them via
is_ignored_kernel_symbol().

Add the same check gated by dso__kernel() so that kernel ELF objects
(vmlinux, .ko) have mapping symbols filtered across all architectures,
but userspace ELF objects are unaffected -- '$' is a valid prefix in
languages like Java and Scala.

The existing ARM/AArch64 and RISC-V architecture-specific mapping symbol
checks are preserved; the new is_ignored_kernel_symbol() check adds x86
local symbol (.L*, L0*) filtering and provides unified
cross-architecture coverage for kernel DSOs.
