So far as I can tell, this patch will make lookup of exact types faster for 
PDB, but because of the way DWARF debug_names tables are constructed, I don't 
think there's any way we can do the same thing for DWARF.

But unless I'm misunderstanding the patch, this doesn't change correctness of 
the lookup (except for fixing "type lookup 'struct Foo'").  Did I miss 
something?
