  Log Message:
  -----------
  [libunwind] Ensure test/libunwind_01.pass is not completely inlined

By adding noinline and calling fprintf before returning we ensure that
every function will have a distinct call frame and that the return address
will always be saved instead of saving the target in main as the result.

Before this change all backtraces were always backtrace -> main -> _start,
i.e. always exactly three entries. This happenend because all calls were
inlined in main() and the test just happenend to pass because there is at
least _start before main.

I found this while fixing some bugs in libunwind for CHERI and noticed that
the test was passing even though the code was completely broken.
