perf test: Fix dwarf unwind using libunwind.

Perf tool fails to unwind user stack if the event raises in a shared
object. This patch improves tests/dwarf-unwind.c to demonstrate the
problem by utilizing commonly used glibc function "bsearch". If perf is
not statically linked, the testcase will try to unwind a mixed call
trace.

By debugging libunwind I found that there is a bug in unwind-libunwind:
it always passes 0 as segbase to libunwind, cause libunwind unable to
locate debug_frame entry fir first level ip address (I add some more
debugging output into libunwind to make things clear):

               >_Uarm_dwarf_find_debug_frame: start_ip = 10be98, end_ip = 10c2a4
               >_Uarm_dwarf_find_debug_frame: found debug_frame table `/lib/libc-2.18.so': segbase=0x0, len=7, gp=0x0, table_data=0x449388
               >_Uarm_dwarf_search_unwind_table: call lookup:ip = b6cd3bcc, segbase = 0, rel_ip = b6cd3bcc
               >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = bcf18 (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc)
               >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 6d314 (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc)
               >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 33d0c (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc)
                ...
               >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 15d0c (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc)
               >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 15c40 (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc)
 >_Uarm_dwarf_search_unwind_table: IP b6cd3bcc inside range b6c12000-b6d4c000, but no explicit unwind info found

This patch passes map->start as segbase to dwarf_find_debug_frame(), so
di will be initialized correctly.

In addition, dso and executable are different when setting segbase. This
patch first check whether the elf is executable, and pass segbase only
for shared object.
