[RFC PATCH] plugins/api: expose symbol lookup to plugins

[Alex Bennée]

This is a quality of life helper for plugins so they don't need to
re-implement symbol lookup when dumping an address. The strings are
constant so don't need to be duplicated. One minor tweak is to return
NULL instead of a zero length string to show lookup failed.
