Ensure GDB printf command can print convenience var strings without a target.
Without this patch, GDB printf command calls malloc on the target, writes the convenience var content to the target, re-reads the content from the target, and then locally printf the string. This implies inferior calls, and does not work when there is no running inferior, or when the inferior is a core dump. With this patch, printf command can printf string convenience variables without inferior function calls. Ada string convenience variables can also be printed. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-07-08 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * NEWS: Mention that GDB printf and eval commands can now print C-style and Ada-style convenience var strings without calling the inferior. * printcmd.c (printf_c_string): Locally print GDB internal var instead of transiting via the inferior. (printf_wide_c_string): Likewise. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2019-07-08 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * gdb.base/printcmds.exp: Test printing C string and C wide string convenience vars without transiting via the inferior. Also make test names unique.
