perf srcline: Add a timeout to reading from addr2line
addr2line may fail to send expected values causing perf to wait
indefinitely. Add a 1 second timeout (twice the timeout for reading from
/proc/pid/maps) so that such reads don't cause perf to appear to lock
up.
There are already checks that the file for addr2line contains a debug
section but this isn't always sufficient. The problem was observed when
a valid elf file would set the configuration for binutils addr2line,
then a later read of vmlinux with ELF debug sections would cause a
failing write/read which would block indefinitely.
As a service to future readers, if the io hits eof or an error, cleanup
the addr2line process.
