perf probe: Improve error messages in --line option

Improve error messages of 'perf probe --line' mode.

Currently 'perf probe' shows the "Debuginfo analysis failed" message with
an error code when the given symbol is not found:

  -----
  # perf probe -L page_cgroup_init_flatmem
  Debuginfo analysis failed. (-2)
    Error: Failed to show lines.
  -----

But -2 (-ENOENT) means that the given source line or function was not
found. With this patch, 'perf probe' shows the correct error message:

  -----
  # perf probe -L page_cgroup_init_flatmem
  Specified source line is not found.
    Error: Failed to show lines.
  -----

There is also another debug error code is shown in the same function
after get_real_path(). This removes that too.
