perf libdw: Fix outer-frame name resolution and spurious "(inlined)" tag
cu_walk_functions_at() calls libdw_a2l_cb() with the containing
DW_TAG_subprogram DIE first, then each DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine
nested inside. The callback treated both the same way, causing two
bugs:
1) die_name() returns the unqualified DW_AT_name, so every C++
frame lost its namespace/class prefix (ns::Class::method
collapsed to method).
2) new_inline_sym() re-uses base_sym only when funcname matches
base_sym->name exactly; otherwise it fabricates a fake symbol
tagged "(inlined)". Any mismatch between the DWARF name and
the ELF symbol name mis-tags an outer, non-inline frame as
inlined. This hits C++ (die_name()'s unqualified output never
matches the demangled ELF symbol) and it also hits C functions
that GCC IPA-cloned (foo vs foo.isra.0 / .constprop / .part /
.cold), since DW_AT_linkage_name doesn't reflect those renames.
Fix both:
* Prefer die_get_linkage_name() (mangled, fully qualified),
falling back to die_name() when absent (C, extern "C").
new_inline_sym() already demangles via dso__demangle_sym().
* For DW_TAG_subprogram DIEs, use base_sym directly -- the DIE
tag already tells us it is the outer function, sidestepping
the name comparison entirely for both C++ qualification and
GCC IPA-clone renames.
