So, in the end we'll have dwarf2_per_objfile, of which there will be only
one and will be shared between the objfiles, and dwarf2_unshareable of which
there will be N (for N objfiles), which won't be shared between the objfiles?
I find it a bit confusing, because now the object called "per_objfile" is not
per objfile.
