lookup_dwo_unit receives the name of the DWO unit to look up, as read
from the DW_AT_dwo_name attribute of the skeleton DIE. But then, it
doesn't use it:
/* Yeah, we look dwo_name up again, but it simplifies the code. */
dwo_name = dwarf2_dwo_name (comp_unit_die, cu);
Perhaps this comment made sense at some point, but with the code we have
today, I don't understand it. It should be fine to use the name passed
as a parameter, which the caller also obtained by calling
dwarf2_dwo_name.
