objtool: Add several performance improvements
Use hash tables for instruction and rela lookups (and keep the linked lists around for sequential access). Also cache the section struct for the "__func_stack_frame_non_standard" section. With this change, "objtool check net/wireless/nl80211.o" goes from: real 0m1.168s user 0m1.163s sys 0m0.005s to: real 0m0.059s user 0m0.042s sys 0m0.017s for a 20x speedup. With the same object, it should be noted that the memory heap usage grew from 8MB to 62MB. Reducing the memory usage is on the TODO list.
