perf symbols: Store vdso buildid unconditionally
When unwinding callchains on a different machine, vdso info should be available so the unwind process won't be interrupted if address falls into vdso region. But in most cases, the addresses of sample events are not in vdso range, the buildid of a zero hit vdso won't be stored into perf.data. This patch stores vdso buildid regardless of whether the vdso is hit or not.
