  From: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@polymtl.ca>

We currently have:

  using dwarf2_per_cu_up = std::unique_ptr<dwarf2_per_cu, dwarf2_per_cu_deleter>;
  using signatured_type_up = std::unique_ptr<signatured_type>;

Meaning that it's not possible to pass a signatured_type_up as a
dwarf2_per_cu_up, even though the target types are related (it is
possible to pass a `signatured_type *` as a `dwarf2_per_cu *`).

If we give signatured_type_up the same deleter as dwarf2_per_cu_up, then
it becomes possible to pass a signatured_type_up as a dwarf2_per_cu_up.
This lets us avoid releasing a signatured_type_up only to create a
dwarf2dwarf2_per_cu_up immediately after in some spots.  The only
downside is that we can't use make_unique anymore, but it's already the
case for dwarf2_per_cu_up.

Swap the order of things in add_type_unit so that we don't need a
special holder variable.

Looks reasonable to me.
