objtool: Speed up SHT_GROUP reindexing
After elf_update_group_sh_info() was introduced, a prototype version of
"objtool klp diff" went from taking ~1s to several minutes, due to
looping almost endlessly in elf_update_group_sh_info() while creating
thousands of local symbols in a file with thousands of sections.
Dramatically improve the performance by marking all symbols' correlated
SHT_GROUP sections while reading the object. That way there's no need
to search for it every time a symbol gets reindexed.
Fixes: 2cb291596e2c ("objtool: Fix up st_info in COMDAT group section")
