perf probe: Fix to support libdwfl older than 0.148
Since the libdwfl library before 0.148 fails to analyze live kernel debuginfo, 'perf probe --list' compiled with those old libdwfl sometimes crashes. To avoid that bug, perf probe does not use libdwfl's live kernel analysis routine when it is compiled with older libdwfl. Side effect: perf with older libdwfl doesn't support listing probe in modules with source code line. Those could be shown by symbol+offset.
