bug#42701: 28.0.50; Duplicate Edebug instrumentation of lambda form in some cases

[Philipp Stephani]

Create a file /tmp/edebug.el:

$ cat /tmp/edebug.el 
(defun f () (if-let (x (funcall (lambda (y) 1) 2)) 3 4))

Visit the file:

$ emacs -Q -l subr-x -l edebug /tmp/edebug.el

Now instrument the function `f' using C-u C-M-x.  The *Messages* buffer
will now contain

Edebug: edebug-anon0 [2 times]
Edebug: f

The [2 times] indicates the problem: Edebug has instrumented two
definitions with the same (generated) symbol.  This is a problem when
using Edebug for e.g. coverage instrumentation, as the coverage
information is attached to the symbol itself (as a symbol property), and
duplicate symbols when instrumenting code lead to subtle errors such as
mismatching vector lengths for the position of the breakpoints and the
hit counts.

I'd speculate that this issue is similar to Bug#41988 in that Edebug
defines instrumented symbols even when backtracking later.  In this
case, Edebug backtracks to the legacy (SYM VAL) form, but has already
partially matched the ((SYM VAL)) form, including instrumenting the
lambda form therein.  I guess Edebug should perform some kind of
two-phase instrumentation and instrument subforms only when a form has
been chosen after backtracking.  Since this is somewhat difficult to
implement without rewriting larger parts of Edebug, it might be more
feasible to regenerate anonymous symbols after a failed match.
