Any libdwarf.h you see was written by 'someone', it is not a formal part of
the DWARF2/3/4 standards.
readelf (gnu binutils) and dwarfdump (which I support, just google
dwarfdump)
can do what you ask (assuming I really understand your questions). Both
are available free in C source. Whether either is 'simple' is another
question.
Each is 'as simple as possible' in some sense(?).
Since you surely know that I rather doubt I understand your questions!
