[RFC PATCH 02/10] dyndbg: split __dyndbg_sites section out from __dyndbg

[Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com>]

split struct _ddebug_site out from struct _ddebug (adding a site ptr),
and add new __dyndbg_sites section placement to vmlinux.lds.h

This is an implementation detail to isolate the redundant columns into
a separate section, so it specifically excludes lineno.

This allows (later) to copy and compress the info into a better (more
compact) representation thats still fast enough.  Then we can just
reclaim the whole __dyndbg_sites section.
