The nesting level is represented by the DIE tree.  Each DIE
has (potentially) one or more children.  Consult the description
of how DIEs are encoded in the .debug_info section for a detailed
description of how this is represented.

Looking at the code in readelf or libdwarf may help you get a better
understanding.
