[PATCH 0/2] rh2059646 - compilation of prusa-slicer hangs

rh2059646-reduced.s is a 10M source for one function extracted from
the 386M source attached to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2059646

Assembly even of the reduced file takes a long time, and the default
stack of 8M is not enough to handle recursion of resolve_symbol_value
starting from case rs_leb128 in gas/write.c:relax_segment.  There is
one extremely long chain of expressions evaluating view numbers,
123582 deep if I calculated correctly.  The source has that many .loc
directives in a row without intervening assembly instructions!
