  While looking at the output of "maint info bfd" with multiple
inferiors, I noticed that there were duplicate entries for
.gnu_debugdata.

There is no reason to re-create this BFD each time it is needed.  This
patch arranges to share the data.

	* minidebug.c (gnu_debug_key): New global.
	(find_separate_debug_file_in_section): Use it.
