[patch v2 03/18] btrace: change branch trace data structure


The branch trace is represented as 3 vectors:
  - a block vector
  - a instruction vector
  - a function vector

Each vector (except for the first) is computed from the one above.

Change this into a graph where a node represents a sequence of instructions
belonging to the same function and where we have three types of edges to connect
the function segments:
  - control flow
  - same function (instance)
  - call stack

This allows us to navigate in the branch trace.  We will need this for "record
goto" and reverse execution.

This patch introduces the data structure and computes the control flow edges.
It also introduces iterator structs to simplify iterating over the branch trace
in control-flow order.

It also fixes PR gdb/15240 since now recursive calls are handled correctly.
Fix the test that got the number of expected fib instances and also the
function numbers wrong.

The current instruction had been part of the branch trace.  This will look odd
once we start support for reverse execution.  Remove it.  We still keep it in
the trace itself to allow extending the branch trace more easily in the future.
