     A shared psymtab is one that is referenced by multiple other
     psymtabs, and which conceptually has its contents directly
     included in those.

     Shared psymtabs have special semantics.  When a search finds a
     symbol in a shared table, we instead return one of the non-shared
     tables that include this one.

     A shared psymtabs can be referred to by other shared ones.

     The psymtabs that refer to a shared psymtab will list the shared
     psymtab in their 'dependencies' array.

     In DWARF terms, a shared psymtab is a DW_TAG_partial_unit; but
     of course using a name based on that would be too confusing, so
     "shared" was chosen instead.
     
     Only a single user is needed because, when expanding a shared
     psymtab, we only need to expand its "canonical" non-shared user.
     The choice of which one should be canonical is left to the
