perf probe: Warn unmatched function filter correctly
Warn unmatched function filter correctly instead of warning "symbol-loading error", since that can be a filter issue. From the technical point of view, this adds a filter chech in map__load and if there is a filter, it returns -2 (filter-out), instead of -1 (error), and perf-probe checks it and change message. E.g. without this fix: # perf probe -F rt_sp* no symbols found in [kernel.kallsyms], maybe install a debug package? Failed to load symbols in kernel With this fix: # perf probe -F rt_sp* no symbols passed the given filter. Failed to find symbols matched to "rt_sp*" Error: Failed to show functions.
