While fiddling a bit with -Wunused-variable, Sergio noticed that "maint
print c-tdesc" was always generating code for the "tdesc_type
*field_type" variable, even when it wasn't used. This is caught by GCC
when using -Wunused-variable, of course.
This patch changes the print_c_tdesc class to only output the field
declaration when we actually need it.
It shouldn't be necessary to do the same with the other variable
declarations (type_with_fields and element_type), because they are
always if they are declared.
The C files in features/ are regenerated, some declarations of
field_type are removed, as expected, while some others move to where
they are used for the first time.

This patch makes tdesc_type an abstract base class and creates three
subclasses:
- tdesc_type_builtin, for builtin types
- tdesc_type_vector, for vector types
- tdesc_type_with_fields, for struct, union, flag and enum types
This allows getting rid of the union in tdesc_type and to not allow the
std::vector separately. I tried to go further and create separate
classes for struct, union, flag and enum, but it proved too difficult.
One problem is that from the point of the of the target description
code, the types tdesc_type_* are opaque (only forward-declared).
Therefore, it doesn't know about inheritance relationship between those
classes. This makes it impossible to make functions that accept a
pointer to a base class and pass a pointer to a derived class, for
example. I think this patch here is a good compromise, and if somebody
wants to improve things further, the door is open.
A make_gdb_type virtual pure method is added to tdesc_type, which
replaces the current tdesc_gdb_type function. Calling this method on a
tdesc_type returns the corresponding built gdb type.

GDBserver still uses pre-generated target descriptions in order to
reply to GDB's query on target description (see xml-builtin-generated.c
in GDBserver build directory). This patch teaches GDBserver to
create XML contents according to the target descriptions rather than
using pre-generated ones.
First, change target feature c files to pass the feature xml file
name to tdesc_create_feature, so that target description in GDBserver
can record them, and create XML contents from these features in
buffer, like
...
<xi:include href="$FEATURE1_XML_NAME"/>
<xi:include href="$FEATURE2_XML_NAME"/>
...
and send this buffer back to GDB.
Note that this patch reuses target_desc.xmltarget a little bit, which is
to hold the XML contents dynamically generated in tdesc_get_features_xml.
However, it is not xfree'ed in ~target_desc, because we can't tell it is
from xstrdup or a literal string. Since we don't delete target_desc,
there is no memory leak yet. After we change all target descriptions to
the new style, target_desc.xmltarget is from xstrdup, then, we can safely
xfree it in ~target_desc.

tdesc_i386_XXX_linux is used in many places in linux-x86-low.c and this
patch adds a new function i386_linux_read_description to return the right
tdesc according to xcr0. i386_linux_read_description is quite similar to
the counterpart in GDB, and the following patch will share the duplicated
code, so this patch adds arch/tdesc.h includes the declarations of various
tdesc apis which are used by the shared code. The generated c feature
files can include arch/tdesc.h only.

Instead of using pre-generated target descriptions, this patch
changes GDB to lazily and dynamically create target descriptions
according to the target hardware capability (xcr0 in i386).
This support any combination of target features.
Some reg in target description has "regnum" attribute, so its register
number is got from the attribute value instead from sequential allocation.
<reg name="xmm0" bitsize="128" type="vec128" regnum="32"/>
when target description is created, it should match the regnum, so this
patch adds a new field m_next_regnum to track it, if attribute number is
greater than the m_next_regnum, print the code to set register number
explicitly.

This patch changes Makefile and command "maint print c-files" so
that GDB can print c files for features instead target description.
Previously, we feed GDB a target description xml file, which generate
c files including multiple features.
With this patch, in Makefile, we wrap each feature xml file, and
create a temp target description which include only one feature.
Then, adjust the target description printer for them, and print
a c function for each given feature, so that we can use these
c functions later to create target description in a flexible way.
