It turns out that it is possible to construct debug info in which a
compilation unit has a low_pc and a high_pc, and a line number table,
but the line number table does not cover PC values from low_pc up to
some value.  For example, this will happen in an assembler file if you
use a .cfi_startproc with no preceding .loc, and then provide some
instructions, and then use a .loc later in the function before the
.cfi_endproc.

In this admittedly obscure case the backtrace library was returning an
error "inconsistent DWARF line number info."  Since the case can occur
in real files, this is inappropriate.  This patch fixes libbacktrace to
return the main compilation file, if available, with no associated
function or line number.

I have not added a test case because I don't know how to create one
without using assembler code.  I did write a test case myself and
verified that it fixed the problem on my system.

Bootstrapped and ran libbacktrace testsuite on
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.  Committed to mainline.

	* dwarf.c (struct unit): Add filename and abs_filename fields.
	(build_address_map): Set new fields when reading unit.
	(dwarf_lookup_pc): If we don't find an entry in the line table,
	just return the main file name.
