The FP16 feature is optional in ARMv8.2, so it is wrong to add it to

The address space is useless to readonly regcache, so this patch removes
the parameter to construct readonly regcache.
address_space was added in regcache by 6c95b8d, but for read-write
regcache. regcache::aspace is used for various breakpoint/watchpoint
checking, and these regcache are not read-only regcache.

A few coprocessor instructions introduced in ARMv2 are currently
accepted by GAS when targeting ARMv1 due to a typo in the code. This
patch fixes the issue and introduce a more fine grained testing for
coprocessor instructions availability. Coprocessor instructions are
grouped as follows:
* ARM coprocessor instructions introduced in ARMv2
Includes: ldc, stc, mcr, mrc, cdp, ldcl, stcl
Guarded by: ARM_EXT_V2
Tests: copro-arm_v2plus-arm_v*.d
* ARM coprocessor instructions introduced in ARMv5
Includes: ldc2, ldc2l, stc2, stc2l, cdp2, mcr2, mrc2
Guarded by: ARM_EXT_V5
Tests: copro-arm_v5plus-arm_v*.d
* ARM coprocessor instructions introduced in ARMv5TE
Includes: mcrr, mrrc
Guarded by: ARM_EXT_V5E
Tests: copro-arm_v5teplus-arm_v*.d
* ARM coprocessor instructions introduced in ARMv6
Includes: mcrr2, mrrc2
Guarded by: ARM_EXT_V6
Tests: copro-arm_v6plus-arm_v*.d
* Thumb coprocessor instructions introduced in ARMv6T2
Includes: ldc, ldcl, stc, stcl, mcr, mrc, mcrr, mrrc, cdp, ldc2,
ldc2l, stc2, stc2l, cdp2, mcr2, mrc2, mcrr2, mrrc2
Guarded by: ARM_EXT_V6T2
Tests: copro-thumb_v6t2plus-thumb_v*.d
For each of these groups, at least 2 tests are performed:
* instructions are not available in earlier architecture
* instructions are available in architecture where they were introduced
More tests need to be performed when instructions in a group span
several assembly files.
Note that an instruction in the original coprocessor testcase is
changed to unified syntax to allow the testcase to be assembled for ARM
and Thumb state. Correct processing of legacy syntax is covered in other
testcases.

As reported here
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2017-10/msg00020.html
the output of certain commands, like backtrace, doesn't appear anywhere
when it is run as a breakpoint command and when using MI.
The reason is that the current_uiout is set to the mi_ui_out while these
commands run, whereas we want the output as CLI output. Some commands
like "print" work, because they use printf_filtered (gdb_stdout, ...)
directly, bypassing the current ui_out.
The fix I did is to force setting the cli_uiout as the current_uiout
when calling execute_control_command. I am not sure if this is the
right way to fix the problem, comments about the approach would be
appreciated.
I enhanced gdb.mi/mi-break.exp to test the backtrace command.
Regtested on the buildbot.

When compiling with clang or gcc 8, we see warnings like this:
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/arm-tdep.c:10013:13: error: comparison of 0 <= unsigned expression is always true [-Werror,-Wtautological-compare]
if (0 <= insn_op1 && 3 >= insn_op1)

else if (opB >= 0 && opB <= 2)
~~~ ^ ~
This is because an unsigned integer (opB in this case) will always be >=
0. It is still useful to keep both bounds of the range in the
expression, even if one is at the edge of the data type range. This
patch introduces a utility function in_inclusive_range that gets rid of
the warning while conveying that we are checking for a range.

unexpected relocations (for example, both elf64-ppc.c and elf32-ppc.c
use _bfd_elf_relocs_compatible, so I think it would be possible for

polyml produces object files with the wrong OS/ABI for hppa-linux.
This, along with the fact that elf32-hppa.c is using the strictest
backend relocs_compatible, results in wrong merging of ELF symbols.
So, remove the relocs_compatible check in _bfd_elf_merge_symbol.
_bfd_elf_merge_symbol is only called nowadays from within blocks
protected by is_elf_hash_table, so "we are doing an ELF link" as the
removed comment says, is true.
Also relax relocs_compatible for hppa and powerpc. relocs_compatible
is used for more than just merging symbols, as the name suggests.
This allows objects that are in fact reasonably compatible to be
linked.
