Cache the last result of dwarf_getscopes
This one function accounted for ~30% of my callgrind profile of "stap -l 'syscall.*'", even though it was only called ~1200 times. We call dwarf_getscopes for each $target variable, with the same parameters within a given probe. Since they're no nicely grouped, it's easy to just cache the most recent call, and the next few calls will be a hit. Overall this cuts the number of calls down to about 300, for an easy speed gain.
