[PATCH v2 2/8] objtool/klp: Remove trailing '_' in demangle_name()

[Song Liu <song@kernel.org>]

With CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN, it is possible to have nested __UNIQUE_ID_,
such as:

  __UNIQUE_ID_addressable___UNIQUE_ID_pci_invalid_bar_694_695

To remove both trailing numbers, also remove trailing '_'.

Also add comments to demangle_name().
