Use unique_ptr to destroy per-bfd object
In some cases, the objfile owns the per-bfd object. This is yet another object that can sometimes be destroyed before the registry is destroyed, possibly reslting in a use-after-free. Also, I noticed that the condition for deleting the object is not the same as the condition used to create it -- so it could possibly result in a memory leak in some situations. This patch fixes the problem by introducing a new unique_ptr that holds this object when necessary.
