The current method for inserting symbols is to use the symbols__insert() function. However symbols__insert() does not update the dso symbol cache. This causes problems in the following scenario: 1. symbol not found at addr using dso__find_symbol 2. symbol inserted at addr using the existing symbols__insert function 3. symbol still not found at addr using dso__find_symbol() because cache isn't updated. This is undesired behavior. The undesired behavior in (3) is addressed by creating a new function, dso__insert_symbol() to both insert the symbol and update the symbol cache if necessary. If dso__insert_symbol() is used in (2) instead of symbols__insert(), then the undesired behavior in (3) is avoided.
