perf tools: Fix dso__new handle() to handle deleted DSOs
It is better than showing the map addr, this way at least we know that we can't get the symtabs because the DSO was deleted (system update) while an app still used such DSO. Yeah, don't do that, but if you do, you'll figure it out quicker this way.
