Impact: prevent stale command line output

In case there is no valid command line mapping for a pid
trace_find_cmdline() returns without updating the comm buffer. The
trace dump keeps the previous entry which results in confusing trace
output:

     <idle>-0     [000]   280.702056 ....
     <idle>-23456 [000]   280.702080 ....

Update the comm buffer with "<...>" when no mapping is found.
