Parallelize GdbIndexSection's symbol table creation.

Since .gdb_index sections contain all known symbols, they can be very large.
One of my executables has a .gdb_index section of 1350 GiB. Uniquifying
symbols by name takes 3.77 seconds on my machine. This patch parallelize it.

  Time to call createSymbols() with 8.4 million unique symbols:

  Without this patch: 3773 ms
  Parallelism = 1:    4374 ms
  Parallelism = 2:    2628 ms
  Parallelism = 16:    837 ms

As you can see above, this algorithm is a bit more inefficient
than the non-parallelized version, but even with dual-core, it is
faster than that, so I think it is overall a win.
