kallsyms: clean up modname and modbuildid initialization in kallsyms_lookup_buildid()

The @modname and @modbuildid optional return parameters are set only when
the symbol is in a module.

Always initialize them so that they do not need to be cleared when the
module is not in a module.  It simplifies the logic and makes the code
even slightly more safe.

Note that bpf_address_lookup() function will get updated in a separate
patch.
