Bug-Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/911815
Invoking addr2line in a separate subprocess, one for each required
lookup, takes a terribly long time.
This patch introduces a long-running addr2line process for each DSO,
*DRAMATICALLY* speeding up runs of perf.
What used to take tens of minutes now takes tens of seconds.
