PR10518: context shrinkage with function recursion analysis feeding MAXNESTING
* translate.cxx (emit_common_header, translate_pass): Use new recursion_info visitor to calculate appropriate MAXNESTING value for scripts with or without recursion. * tapsets.cxx (common_probe_entryfn_prologue): Initialize c->nesting = -1. * stap.1.in: Clarify MAXNESTING value.
