The btrace record target shows the branch trace from the location of the first
branch destination. This is the first BTS records.
After adding incremental updates, we can now add a dummy record for the current
PC when we enable tracing so we show the trace from the location where branch
tracing has been enabled.

Extend the always failing unwinder to provide the PC based on the call
structure detected in the branch trace.
The unwinder supports normal frames and tailcall frames.
Inline frames are not supported.
