    Fix two buglets in .debug_names dumping
    
    While working on gdb's .debug_names writer, I found a couple of small
    bugs in binutils .debug_names dumping.
    
    First, the DWARF spec (section 6.1.1.4.6 Name Table) says:
    
        These two arrays are indexed starting at 1, [...]
    
    I think it is clearer for binutils to follow this, particularly
    because DW_IDX_parent refers to this number.
    
    Second, I think the handling of an empty hash table is slightly wrong.
    Currently the dumping code assumes there is always an array of hashes.
    However, section 6.1.1.4.5 Hash Lookup Table says:
    
        The optional hash lookup table immediately follows the list of
        type signatures.
    
    and then:
    
        The hash lookup table is actually two separate arrays: an array of
        buckets, followed immediately by an array of hashes.
    
    My reading of this is that the hash table as a whole is optional, and
    so the hashes will not exist in this case.  (This also makes sense
    because the hashes are not useful without the buckets anyway.)
    
    This patch fixes both of these problems.  FWIW I have some gdb patches
    in progress that change gdb both to omit the hash table and to use
    DW_IDX_parent.
