    Use bfd id to validate dwarf2 cache
    
    Using a bfd pointer to validate the cache isn't very robust.  If a bfd
    is closed somehow without clearing the cache, then it's possible that
    another bfd is opened using the same memory and thus orig_bfd compares
    equal to the new bfd.
    
            * dwarf2.c (struct dwarf2_debug): Add orig_bfd_id.  Delete
            orig_bfd.
            (_bfd_dwarf2_slurp_debug_info): Validate stash with orig_bfd_id.
