size_report: Don't crash when observing stripped symbols

Browse source 
When stripped symbols are present in the build size_report has crashed
due to it not being aware of this case.

This patch causes stripped symbols to be ignored instead, allowing
analysis of the non-stripped symbols.

It is left as future work to somehow display how much space stripped
symbols are taking up.

Stripped symbols can be present when third-party binaries are linked
into the build.
