GNU DebugFission didn't add table headers for the .debug_addr tables, but DWARF5 does. The table header make it possible for a DWARF consumer to parse the address tables without having to index all .debug_info CUs first. We can keep using the .debug_addr section label as is, because the DW_AT_addr_base attribute points at the actual address index, which starts right after the table header. So the label is generated at the correct location whether the header is added first or not.
