Which leads to another, more non-trivia question, what if a struct
definition is included but there are no references to this function?

For now we just discard it so that all the variables in a function can be
accounted, but the right thing, as said in the comment added in this cset is to
have a list of lexical blocks, each with a list of its variables so that we can
find the biggest stack usage in functions.

So that we can find all the cus for some specific class
(cus__find_class_by_name), or traverse all the CUs (cus__for_each_cu),
etc.
Now we don't look at just the first CU in multi-CU files (vmlinux, etc).

types for each CU, for now when working on multi-CU files (vmlinux, any binary
with more than one object file linked) we look only at the first CU when
looking for a specific class or function name, this will be fixed in the
upcoming csets, but doesn't affect the case when we don't specify a class or
function name, where all the CU's are traversed.
