[dev.link] cmd/{compile,link}: split SDWARFINFO symtype into sub-types
This change splits the SDWARFINFO symbol type (a generic container of
DWARF content) into separate sub-classes. The new symbol types are
SDWARFCUINFO comp unit DIE, also CU info and CU packagename syms
SDWARFCONST constant DIE
SDWARFFCN subprogram DIE (default and concrete)
SDWARFABSFCN abstract function DIE
SDWARFTYPE type DIE
SDWARFVAR global variable DIE
Advantage of doing this: in the linker there are several places where
we have to iterate over a symbol's relocations to pick out references
to specific classes of DWARF sub-symbols (for example, looking for all
abstract function DIEs referenced by a subprogram DIE, or looking at
all the type DIEs used in a subprogram DIE). By splitting SDWARFINFO
into parts clients can now look only at the relocation target's sym
type as opposed to having to materialize the target sym name, or do a
lookup.
