[DSC] Simplify file mapping to fix intermittent unrelocated pointers
The `FileAccessorCache`'s LRU eviction could discard a file's mapped data after slide info had already been applied to it. Future accesses to the file produced a fresh mapping, but failed to reapply the slide info. This could result in pointers not correctly being slid, such as in https://github.com/Vector35/binaryninja-api/issues/7689. The LRU cache existed to stay within OS file descriptor limits, since the old `MappedFile` held its fd open for the lifetime of the mapping. There's no real reason for it to hold the file descriptor open like this. Closing it after `mmap` is sufficient to avoid the file descriptor limits. `MappedFileRegion` replaces the combination of `FileAccessorCache`, `WeakFileAccessor`, and `MappedFileAccessor`. It closes the fd immediately after mmap, so all files can stay mapped without consuming descriptors, making the cache unnecessary. `MappedFileRegion` is owned directly by the `CacheEntry` for its full lifetime. Slide info is applied exactly once to each `MappedFileRegion`.
