This commit adds a long-missing piece of infrastructure to libctf: the
ability to report errors and warnings using all the power of printf,
rather than being restricted to one errno value. Internally, libctf
calls ctf_err_warn() to add errors and warnings to a list: a new
iterator ctf_errwarning_next() then consumes this list one by one and
hands it to the caller, which can free it. New errors and warnings are
added until the list is consumed by the caller or the ctf_file_t is
closed, so you can dump them at intervals. The caller can of course
choose to print only those warnings it wants. (I am not sure whether we
want objdump, readelf or ld to print warnings or not: right now I'm
printing them, but maybe we only want to print errors? This entirely
depends on whether warnings are voluminous things describing e.g. the
inability to emit single types because of name clashes or something.
There are no users of this infrastructure yet, so it's hard to say.)
There is no internationalization here yet, but this at least adds a
place where internationalization can be added, to one of
ctf_errwarning_next or ctf_err_warn.
We also provide a new ctf_assert() function which uses this
infrastructure to provide non-fatal assertion failures while emitting an
assert-like string to the caller: to save space and avoid needlessly
duplicating unchanging strings, the assertion test is inlined but the
print-things-out failure case is not. All assertions in libctf will be
converted to use this machinery in future commits and propagate
assertion-failure errors up, so that the linker in particular cannot be
killed by libctf assertion failures when it could perfectly well just
print warnings and drop the CTF section.

This lets you iterate over dynhashes and dynsets using the _next API.
dynhashes can be iterated over in sorted order, which works by
populating an array of key/value pairs using ctf_dynhash_next itself,
then sorting it with qsort.
Convenience inline functions named ctf_dyn{hash,set}_cnext are also
provided that take (-> return) const keys and values.

The internals of the deduplicator want to know if something is a type
that can have a forward to it fairly often, often enough that inlining
it brings a noticeable performance gain. Convert the one place in
libctf that can already benefit, even though it doesn't bring any sort
of performance gain there.

There are many places in the deduplicator which use hashtables as tiny
sets: keys with no value (and usually, but not always, no freeing
function) often with only one or a few members. For each of these, even
after the last change to not store the freeing functions, we are storing
a little malloced block for each item just to track the key/value pair,
and a little malloced block for the hash table itself just to track the
freeing function because we can't use libiberty hashtab's freeing
function because we are using that to free the little malloced per-item
block.
If we only have a key, we don't need any of that: we can ditch the
per-malloced block because we don't have a value, and we can ditch the
per-hashtab structure because we don't need to independently track the
freeing functions since libiberty hashtab is doing it for us. That
means we don't need an owner field in the (now nonexistent) item block
either.
Roughly speaking, this datatype saves about 25% in time and 20% in peak
memory usage for normal links, even fairly big ones. So this might seem
redundant, but it's really worth it.
Instead of a _lookup function, a dynset has two distinct functions:
ctf_dynset_exists, which returns true or false and an optional pointer
to the set member, and ctf_dynhash_lookup_any, which is used if all
members of the set are expected to be equivalent and we just want *any*
member and we don't care which one.
There is no iterator in this set of functions, not because we don't
iterate over dynset members -- we do, a lot -- but because the iterator
here is a member of an entirely new family of much more convenient
iteration functions, introduced in the next commit.

Future commits will use these.
ctf_dynhash_elements: count elements in a dynhash
ctf_dynhash_lookup_kv: look up and return pointers to the original key
and value in a dynhash (the only way of getting
a reference to the original key)
ctf_dynhash_iter_find: iterate until an item is found, then return its
key
ctf_dynhash_cinsert: insert a const key / value into a dynhash (a thim
wrapper in a new header dedicated to inline
functions).
As with the rest of ctf_dynhash, this is not public API. No impact
on existing callers is expected.
