Not so correct. The callers of `GetRnglistData` need to know the contribution 
offset to properly report it during parsing errors in the callers. 
`GetRnglistTable` can report error if `extractHeaderAndOffsets` finds invalid 
header data. In such case LLDB will report (with 
https://www.jankratochvil.net/t/debug_rnglists-dwp.s.patch):
```
error: debug_rnglists-dwp.s.tmp Failed to extract range list table at offset 
0xc: parsing .debug_rnglists table at offset 0x0: unsupported reserved unit 
length of value 0xfffffff0
```
And one has no idea which DWO in that DWP file was invalid, that `0xc` is 
relative to start of contribution, not to start of the `.debug_rnglists.dwo` 
section. `GetRnglistData` knows the contribution offset but its caller 
`DWARFDebugRnglistTable` does not.
I am not sure how perfect the error messages should be so giving an approval 
(if I am authorized to give one) but it would be nice to improve the error 
reporting.
