Enable frame pointers in linux.

Understanding performance regressions:

Status: WontFix (was: Assigned)
The frame pointer change moves Linux release inline with other platforms (including ChromeOS) in a way that makes lots the runtime environment more easy to reason about. In particular, it'll allow us to gather much better memory stats from the field.  The tradeoff seems worth it. Also, I'm suspicious of this number as something of this sort should have seen an across-the-board perf hit rather than just a couple of isolated tests.

Lastly, the overall test numbers seem to be noisy. there was a huge cliff reduction that is multiple times larger than the file regression just now. 

Closing Won't Fix.
