btrace: preserve call stack on function switch
On 64-bit FC25, the _dl_runtime_resolve function uses a conditional branch to
'call' a particular variant optimized for that system:
(gdb) disas _dl_runtime_resolve_avx_opt
Dump of assembler code for function _dl_runtime_resolve_avx_opt:
0x00007ffff7deeb60 <+0>: push %rax
0x00007ffff7deeb61 <+1>: push %rcx
0x00007ffff7deeb62 <+2>: push %rdx
0x00007ffff7deeb63 <+3>: mov $0x1,%ecx

0x00007ffff7deeb6f <+15>: pop %rcx
0x00007ffff7deeb70 <+16>: pop %rax
0x00007ffff7deeb71 <+17>: and $0x4,%r11d
0x00007ffff7deeb75 <+21>: bnd je 0x7ffff7def4a0 <_dl_runtime_resolve_sse_vex>
End of assembler dump.
When computing the function-level trace, btrace treats this as a switch from
_dl_runtime_resolve_avx_opt to _dl_runtime_resolve_sse_vex. We know that we
switched functions but we can't really say in which caller/callee relationship
those two functions are.
In addition to preserving the indentaion level, also preserve the caller
information. This is a heuristic since we don't really know. But at least in
this case, this seems to be the right thing to do.
This fixes a fail in gdb.btrace/rn-dl-bind.exp on 64-bit FC25.
