[PATCH] libdw: Break long or circular DIE ref chains in dwarf_[has]attr_integrate.

- Subject: [PATCH] libdw: Break long or circular DIE ref chains in dwarf_[has]attr_integrate.
Bad DWARF could create a very long or circular DIE ref chain by linking
DW_AT_abstract_origin or DW_AT_specification to the DIE itself. Break
the chain after seeing a large number (16) of DIEs.
