perf symbols: Validate p_filesz before use in filename__read_build_id()
filename__read_build_id() stores ELF p_filesz in a ssize_t variable.
A crafted 32-bit ELF with p_filesz = 0xFFFFFFFF produces ssize_t value
-1. The comparison `p_filesz > buf_size` evaluates false because signed
-1 is less than any non-negative buf_size, so the realloc is skipped and
buf remains NULL.
The subsequent read(fd, NULL, -1) returns -1, which equals p_filesz,
passing the error check. read_build_id() then dereferences the NULL
buffer.
Add an explicit check for p_filesz <= 0 before using the value,
catching both zero-length and sign-wrapped negative sizes from crafted
ELF files.
