Resolves #1637 and improves our support for stripped binaries.
.gosymtab
section is not required to parse the pcln table as stated in https://pkg.go.dev/debug/gosym#NewTableruntime.text
symbol from the instrumented binary. For binaries not including C code, this is the same as the start of the.text
section. However for those that use C code, this value will differ. This caused incorrect offsets to get probed when instrumenting a stripped binary that uses a CGO lib. An example of this is our DB example and test which uses the go-sqlite3 library.
