The Rust compiler uses GCC C++ name mangling, but it has another layer of
encoding so abi::cxa_demangle doesn't produce great results. This patch
changes dump_syms to dump unmangled names by default so that consumers can
demangle them after-the-fact.
It also adds a tiny bit of support for linking against a Rust library I wrote
that can demangle Rust symbols nicely:

The DWARF data for Swift code has a top-level DW_TAG_module DIE as the
child of the DW_TAG_compile_unit DIE and the parent of the
DW_TAG_subprogram DIEs that dump_syms uses to locate functions.
dump_syms needs to process DW_TAG_module DIEs as introducing nested
scopes to make it work with Swift.
This also reworks demangling to be language-specific, so that the C++
demangler isn't invoked when processing Swift code. The DWARF data for
Swift code presents its mangled names in the same form as used for C++
(DW_AT_MIPS_linkage_name or DW_AT_linkage_name) but the mangling is
Swift-specific (beginning with _T instead of _Z). There is no
programmatic interface to a Swift name demangler as an analogue to C++'s
__cxa_demangle(), so mangled Swift names are exposed as-is. Xcode's
"xcrun swift-demangle" can be used to post-process these mangled Swift
names on macOS.
Support for mangled names presented in a DW_AT_linkage_name attribute,
as used by DWARF 4, is added. This supersedes the earlier use of
DW_AT_MIPS_linkage_name.

The Linux symbol dumper's classes are reasonably portable, and should be
usable for the Mac dumper as well. Move them to src/common, along with
their unit tests. Update #include directives and Makefile.
