The PC returned by dwfl_frame_pc() may map into a not-yet-reported
module. We have to report it before we continue unwinding. But when we
query for the isactivation flag in dwfl_frame_pc, libdw will actually do
one more unwinding step internally which can then break and lead to
missed frames or broken stacks.

With libunwind we get e.g.:

Note the two frames 1589e8 and 78622 in the first sample. These are
missing when unwinding with libdw. The second sample's breakage is

This patch fixes this issue and the libdw unwinder mimicks the libunwind
behavior more closely.
