Occasionally we see absolutely massive basic blocks, typically in global
constructors that are vulnerable to heavy inlining. When these blocks are
dense with DBG_VALUE instructions, we can hit near quadratic complexity in
DwarfDebug's validThroughout function. The problem is caused by:
* validThroughout having to step through all instructions in the block to
examine their lexical scope,
* and a high proportion of instructions in that block being DBG_VALUEs
for a unique variable fragment,
Leading to us stepping through every instruction in the block, for (nearly)
each instruction in the block.
By adding this guard, we force variables in large blocks to use a location
list rather than a single-location expression, as shown in the added test.
This shouldn't change the meaning of the output DWARF at all: instead we
use a less efficient DWARF encoding to avoid a poor-performance code path.
