tools/perf: Add "is_kmod" to struct dso to check if it is kernel module

Update "struct dso" to include new member "is_kmod".
This new field will determine if the file is a kernel
module or not.

To resolve the address from a sample, perf looks at the
DSO maps. In case of address from a kernel module, there
were some address found to be not resolved. This was
observed while running perf test for "Object code reading".
Though the ip falls beteen the start address of the loaded
module (perf map->start ) and end address ( perf map->end),
it was unresolved.

This was happening because in some cases for kernel
modules, address from sample points to stub instructions.
To identify if the DSO is a kernel module, the new field
"is_kmod" is added to "struct dso".
