* When .eh_frame is located using .eh_frame_hdr (PT_GNU_EH_FRAME), the
start of .eh_frame is known, but not the size. In this case, the
unwinder must rely on a terminator present at the end of .eh_frame.
Set dwarf_section_length to UINTPTR_MAX to indicate this.
* Add a new field, text_segment_length, that the FrameHeaderCache uses
to track the size of the PT_LOAD segment indicated by dso_base.
* Compute ehSectionEnd by adding sectionLength to ehSectionStart,
never to fdeHint.
Fixes PR46829.

Summary:
This improves unwind performance quite substantially, and follows
a somewhat similar approach used in libgcc_s as described in the
thread here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2005-02/msg00625.html
On certain extremely exception heavy internal tests, the time
drops from about 80 minutes to about five minutes.
