runtime/pprof: avoid crash due to truncated stack traces

The profile proto message builder maintains a location entry cache
that maps a location (possibly involving multiple user frames
that represent inlined function calls) to the location id. We have
been using the first pc of the inlined call sequence as the key of
the cached location entry assuming that, for a given pc, the sequence
of frames representing the inlined call stack is deterministic and
stable. Then, when analyzing the new stack trace, we expected the
exact number of pcs to be present in the captured stack trace upon
the cache hit.

This assumption does not hold, however, in the presence of the stack
trace truncation in the runtime during profiling, and also with the
potential bugs in runtime.

A better fix is to use all the pcs of the inlined call sequece as
the key instead of the first pc. But that is a bigger code change.
This CL avoids the crash assuming the trace was truncated.

Fixes #35538
