cc: Handle nested functions correctly when resolving symbols

`ProcSyms::Module::find_addr` incorrectly resolves symbols when
functions are nested in each other. Specifically, this was discovered
with libpthread, where there are multiple symbols for `write`,
where `write_nocancel` is strictly nested inside `write`. Fix by
explicitly going backward until we reach a matching symbol -- see
details in `ProcSyms::Module::find_addr` comments.
