    gdb: small simplification in dwarf2_locexpr_baton_eval
    
    While examining the dwarf expression evaluator, I noticed that in
    dwarf2_locexpr_baton_eval, whenever push_initial_value is true, the
    addr_stack will never be nullptr.
    
    This allows for a small cleanup, replacing an if/then/else with an
    assertion.
    
    There should be no user visible changes after this commit.
