perf jit: Add unwinding support
This record is intended to provide unwinding information in the eh_frame format. This is required to unwind JITed code which does not maintain the frame pointer register during function calls. The eh_frame unwinding information can be emitted by V8 / Chromium when the --perf_prof_unwinding_info is passed. A record of type jr_code_unwinding_info comes before the jr_code_load it referred to and contains both the .eh_frame and .eh_frame_hdr. The fields in the header have the following meaning: * unwinding_size: size of the eh_frame and eh_frame_hdr, necessary for distinguishing the content from the padding. * eh_frame_hdr_size: as the name says. * mapped_size: size of the payload that was in memory at runtime. typically unwinding_size if the .eh_frame_hdr and .eh_frame were mapped, or 0 if they weren't. It should always be the former case, since the .eh_frame is guaranteed to be mapped in memory. However, certain JITs might want to inject an .eh_frame_hdr with an empty LUT to trigger fp-based unwinding fallback in libunwind. The only part of the .eh_frame_hdr that libunwind reads from remote memory is the LUT, and since there is none, mapping the unwinding info in memory is not necessary, and 0 in this field signifies that it wasn't. This practical hack allows to save bytes in code memory for those JIT compilers that might or might not maintain a valid frame pointer. The payload that follows is assumed to contain first the .eh_frame and then the .eh_header_hdr, with no padding between the two.
