dwz - DWARF optimization and duplicate removal tool

License: GPLv2+ and GPLv3+
Vendor: Fedora Project
Description:
The dwz package contains a program that attempts to optimize DWARF
debugging information contained in ELF shared libraries and ELF executables
for size, by replacing DWARF information representation with equivalent
smaller representation where possible and by reducing the amount of
duplication using techniques from DWARF standard appendix E - creating
DW_TAG_partial_unit compilation units (CUs) for duplicated information
and using DW_TAG_imported_unit to import it into each CU that needs it.

- when creating DW_AT_stmt_list, use DW_FORM_sec_offset for dwarf4
  and DW_FORM_data4 for dwarf[23] rather than vice versa (#919755)
