Use hash tables for instruction and rela lookups (and keep the linked
lists around for sequential access).

Also cache the section struct for the "__func_stack_frame_non_standard"
section.

With this change, "objtool check net/wireless/nl80211.o" goes from:

  real 0m1.168s
  user 0m1.163s
  sys 0m0.005s

to:

  real 0m0.059s
  user 0m0.042s
  sys 0m0.017s

for a 20x speedup.

With the same object, it should be noted that the memory heap usage grew
from 8MB to 62MB.  Reducing the memory usage is on the TODO list.
