In the absence of .debug_line information, there is still other file and address information in .debug_info that we can use to give vague information about the address.

Not sure this actually occurs in practice. But what does happen is there are filenames and symbol names in the '.symtab' section that we should use. This matches the original case that caused the issue to be reported in gimli.

In the case mentioned in #55, binutils' addr2line uses the symbol names found in the .strtab section (elf64).
