Subject: [PATCH 04/11] dynamic_debug: warn when >1 of each type of match-spec is given

Issue warnings when any match-spec is given multiple times in a rule.
Code honoredi last one, but was silent about it.  Docs imply only one is
allowed, by saying match-specs are ANDed together, given that module M
cannot match both A and B.
