[PATCH] perf docs: Correct JIT_CODE_UNWINDING_INFO specification

[Letian Jiang]

The JIT_CODE_UNWINDING_INFO description places the EH Frame Header before
the EH Frame. However, jit_add_eh_frame_info() uses the beginning of the
unwinding data for .eh_frame and the trailing eh_frame_hdr_size bytes for
.eh_frame_hdr.

Correct the unwinding_data description and the eh_frame_hdr_size field
description to match the layout consumed by perf.

Also document that an unwinding record precedes and applies to the next
JIT_CODE_LOAD record. perf caches the unwinding data and uses it when
processing that load record.

Keep the first sentence of the mapped_size note unchanged and remove the
second sentence, which claims that only the EH Frame Header is read when
the unwinding data is not mapped and associates this with FP-based
unwinding. perf copies the entire unwinding payload regardless of
mapped_size; the field affects the length of the synthesized MMAP event,
not which unwinding data is read.

-NOTE: The mapped_size is generally either the same as unwind_data_size (if the unwinding data was mapped in memory by the running process) or zero (if the unwinding data is not mapped by the process). If the unwinding data was not mapped, then only the EH Frame Header will be read, which can be used to specify FP based unwinding for a function which does not have unwinding information.
