Subject: [PATCH 06/13] perf tools: Cache dso data file descriptor

Caching dso data file descriptors to avoid expensive re-opens
especially during DWARF unwind.

We keep dsos data file descriptors open until their count reaches
the half of the current fd open limit (RLIMIT_NOFILE). In this case
we close file descriptor of the first opened dso object.

We've got overall speedup (24% for my workload) of report:
 'perf report --stdio -i perf-test.data' (3 runs)
  (perf-test.data size was around 12GB)

  current code:
   446,826,474,217      cycles                     ( +-  0.23% )
   669,435,100,846      instructions               ( +-  0.03% )

     266.380674551 seconds time elapsed            ( +-  0.37% )

  change:
   558,345,509,819      cycles                     ( +-  0.55% )
   817,283,647,637      instructions               ( +-  0.03% )

     351.564209617 seconds time elapsed            ( +-  0.89% )
