Maps for JITed code, for isntance, aren't backed by files:

perf symbols: Fix JIT symbol resolution on heap
Gaurav reported that perf cannot profile JIT program if it executes the
code on heap. This was because current map__new() only handle JIT on
anon mappings - extends it to handle no_dso (heap, stack) case too.
This patch assumes JIT profiling only provides dynamic function symbols
so check the mapping type to distinguish the case. It'd provide no
symbols for data mapping - if we need to support symbols on data
mappings later it should be changed.

perf tools: Handle JITed code in shared memory
Need to check for /dev/zero.
Most likely more strings are missing too.
