Oh, fair enough - I hadn't read closely. Yeah, guess it's up to you folks/how 
the wasm object format works... - so I'm with you on the "what is the uniqueID 
field for" (& what's the other field that's taking the hash?) & I'll leave it 
to you folks to... hash out.

Comment at: llvm/test/DebugInfo/WebAssembly/dwarf-headers.ll:24-30
+; Looking for DWARF headers to be generated correctly.
+; There are 8 variants with 5 formats: v4 CU, v4 TU, v5 normal/partial CU,
+; v5 skeleton/split CU, v5 normal/split TU.  Some v5 variants differ only
+; in the unit_type code, and the skeleton/split CU differs from normal/partial
+; by having one extra field (dwo_id).
+; (v2 thru v4 CUs are all the same, and TUs were invented in v4,
+; so we don't bother checking older versions.)

Ah, fair enough - symmetry sounds good :)
