pahole: Avoid segfault when parsing bogus file

When trying to use BTF encoding for an apparently problematic kernel
file, pahole segfaults. As can be seen below [1], the problem is that we
are trying to dereference a NULL decoder.

Fix this by checking the return value of dwfl_getmodules which [2] will
return -1 on errors or an offset if one of the modules did not return
DWARF_CB_OK. (In this specific case, it was __cus__load_debug_types that
returned DWARF_CB_ABORT.)
