    gas/Dwarf: properly skip zero-size functions
    
    PR gas/29451
    
    While out_debug_abbrev() properly skips such functions, out_debug_info()
    mistakenly didn't. It needs to calculate the high_pc expression ahead of
    time, in order to skip emitting any data for the function if the value
    is zero.
    
    The one case which would still leave a zero-size entry is when
    symbol_get_obj(symp)->size ends up evaluating to zero. I hope we can
    expect that to not be the case, otherwise we'd need to have a way to
    post-process .debug_info contents between resolving expressions and
    actually writing the data out to the file. Even then it wouldn't be
    entirely obvious in which way to alter the data.
