sh: Optimise FDE/CIE lookup by using red-black trees

Now that the DWARF unwinder is being used to provide perf callstacks
unwinding speed is an issue. It is no longer being used in exceptional
circumstances where we don't care about runtime performance, e.g. when
panicing, so it makes sense improve performance is possible.

With this patch I saw a 42% improvement in unwind time when calling
return_address(1). Greater improvements will be seen as the number of
levels unwound increases as each unwind is now cheaper.

Note that insertion time has doubled but that's just the price we pay
for keeping the trees balanced. However, this is a one-time cost for
kernel boot/module load and so the improvements in lookup time dominate
the extra time we spend keeping the trees balanced.
