Dodji Seketeli ce6513ee72 Avoid stripping typedefs too much
strip_typedef re-constructs entire type trees and canonicalize them.
Calling it a lot on very deep and recursive trees can be costly.

Unfortunately, categorization of changes uses strip_typedef quite a
bit to determine if the two types that are different are still
compatible.  When used on changesets generating from comparing two
Linux Kernels, it makes changes categorization dominate CPU usage
profiles.

This patch avoids using strip_typedef to determine if two types are
compatible and thus speeds up type categorization of changes involving
lots of deep and recursive type trees.

	* src/abg-ir.cc (types_are_compatible)
	(is_compatible_with_class_type): Do not strip typedefs.  Just get
	their leaf types.

This is the Application Binary Interface Generic Analysis and
Instrumentation Library.

It aims at constructing, manipulating, serializing and de-serializing
ABI-relevant artifacts.

The set of artifacts that we are intersted is made of quantities like
types, variable, fonctions and declarations of a given library or
program.  For a given library or program this set of quantities is
called an ABI corpus.

This library aims at (among other things) providing a way to compare
two ABI Corpora (apparently the plural of corpus is copora, heh,
that's cool), provide detailed information about their differences,
and help build tools to infer interesting conclusions about these
differences.
