DW_OP_bit_piece is like every other standard dwarf expression: if we see a new 
location for a variable then the variable is now at that location. The current 
behaviour for DIExpression::fragmentsOverlap() is that it returns true when the 
expression isn't a fragment, and that's what we want for DW_OP_bit_piece.
