[PATCH v1 0/3] 2 memory fixes and a build fix

[Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>]

I was looking into some lsan regressions and a latent issue with
libdw, creating these fixes.

A thought, we should probably simplify the libdw logic but rather than
do it here I'll do it as a separate series on top of these. The issues
I see are:

1) dwfl_thread_getframes is used to test for the presence of
   libdw-dwarf-unwind. The blame date on this function is
   2013-05-30. As the function is 10 years old I think having libdw
   implies having dwfl_thread_getframes and so we can just merge the
   two pieces of logic instead of having different feature tests and
   ifdefs.

2) similarly, dwarf_getlocations has a blame date of 2013-08-23 so
   let's just make libdw tests test for this and make having libdw
   imply dwarf_getlocations support.

3) similarly, dwarf_getcfi has a blame date of 2009-06-24 so let's
   just make libdw tests test for this and make having libdw imply
   dwarf_getcfi support.

4) in Makefie.config feature-dwarf is a synonym for libdw support. I
   think using the name libdw is more intention revealing as dwarf can
   mean multiple things. Let's change HAVE_DWARF_SUPPORT to
   HAVE_LIBDW_SUPPORT and all similar dwarf vs libdw names.

5) We have "#if _ELFUTILS_PREREQ(0, 142)" testing for elfutils version
   0.142. Elfutils 0.142 was released around 2009-06-13 (via git blame
   on the NEWS file). Let's remove the #if and ensure elfutils feature
   tests for at least 0.142. If someone were using an incredibly old
   version then they'd lose some elfutils support, but given the 15
   year old age of the library I find it unlikely anyone is doing
   this. They can also just move to a newer version.

From the mailing list I notice also overlap with the last patch and
this series:

Simplifying the libdw support will address some of those issues too.
