So use just PERF_RECORD_MMAP2.

I think if the user says: I need buildids, then, in kernels with support
for getting the buildid in MMAP records, use it as its more accurate,
otherwise fall back to traversing all records at the end to go over lots
of files haversting those build-ids.

If the user says I don't want build-ids, nothing changes, no collection
at the end, perf continues using PERF_RECORD_MMAP2.

Right, it should take into account if the user asked for build-ids or
not in addition to checking if the kernel supports MMAP3.
