perf top: Fix segfault pressing -> with no hist entries

'perf top' segfaults with following operation:

 # perf top -e page-faults -p 11400 # 11400 never generates page-fault

Then on the resulting empty interface, press right key:

  # ./perf top -e page-faults -p 11400
  perf: Segmentation fault
  -------- backtrace --------
  ./perf[0x535428]
  /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3545f)[0x7f0dd360745f]
  ./perf[0x531d46]
  ./perf(perf_evlist__tui_browse_hists+0x96)[0x5340d6]
  ./perf[0x44ba2f]
  /lib64/libpthread.so.0(+0x81d0)[0x7f0dd49dc1d0]
  /lib64/libc.so.6(clone+0x6c)[0x7f0dd36b90dc]

The bug resides in perf_evsel__hists_browse() that, in the above
circumstance browser->selection can be NULL, but code after
skip_annotation doesn't consider it.

This patch fix it by checking browser->selection before fetching
browser->selection->map.
