[PATCH v4 01/22] perf symbol: Avoid memory leak from abi::__cxa_demangle

[Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>]

Rather than allocate memory, allow abi::__cxa_demangle to do
that. This avoids a problem where on error NULL was returned
triggering a memory leak.

Fixes: 3b4e4efe88f6 ("perf symbol: Add abi::__cxa_demangle C++ demangling support")
