Ian Rogers b7a2b011e9 perf powerpc: Unify the skip-callchain-idx libdw with that for addr2line
Rather than have 2 Dwfl unify the Dwfl in skip-callchain-idx with that
is used by libdw__addr2line().

Rename that variable in 'struct dso' from 'a2l_libdw' to just 'libdw' as
it is now used in more than addr2line.

The Dwfl in skip-callchain-idx uses a map address when being read with
dwfl_report_elf (rather than dwfl_report_offline that addr2line
uses).

skip-callchain-idx is wrong as the map address can vary between
processes because of ASLR, ie it should need a different Dwfl per
process.

In the code after this patch the base address becomes 0 and the mapped
PC is used with the dwfl functions.

This should increase the accuracy of skip-callchain-idx, but the impact
has only been build tested.
