[13/20] symtab_reader: add support for ppc64 ELFv1 binaries
Commit Message
When loading the symtab from an ppc64 binary, also keep track of the
function entry addresses as a key for the symbol lookup. That
accommodates the differences in DWARF pointing to the function entry
address while the symbol table points to the function pointer.
The implementation is mostly copied and adopted from abg-dwarf-reader's
read_context to add this functionality also to the new symtab reader.
* src/abg-symtab-reader.cc (symtab::lookup_symbol): fall back to
lookup the address in entry_addr_symbol_map_.
(symtab::load): update the function entry address map for
ppc64 targets.
(symtab::update_function_entry_address_symbol_map): New
function implementation.
* src/abg-symtab-reader.h
(symtab::entry_addr_symbol_map_): New data member.
(symtab::update_function_entry_address_symbol_map): New
function declaration.

Please add a comment here saying that this case is about the function
entry addresses that are relevant for PPC ELFv1.

Please add a comment for this function so that the API doc is complete.

Please move this first function parameter to the same line as the
opening parenthesis and align the other parameters accordingly.

OK to apply to master with the above changes once the prerequisite
patches have been applied.
Thanks!
