As part of relocation, this script matches each source file to its
corresponding object file. This matching is done inside of get_obj_filename
which is called once per source file.
get_obj_filename traverses the entire build directory on every invocation.
This is unnecessary since built object files don't change. On a
sufficiently large project (like mine), this script takes over a minute and
the majority of that time is spent needlessly traversing the build
directory again and again.
Caching the list of object files enables this script to run in less than a
second.
I tested by building my project (which enables the relocation script) and
comparing memory breakdown before / after.
