This applies the second part of GDB's End of Year Procedure, which
updates the copyright year range in all of GDB's files.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
Hi,
On windows host, we see the following ERROR,
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/setshow.exp: set history filename ~/foobar.baz
ERROR OCCURED: couldn't compile regular expression pattern: invalid escape \ seq

which leads to
UNRESOLVED: gdb.base/setshow.exp: show history filename (~/foobar.baz)
and this error is thrown from this test below:
gdb_test "show history filename" \
"The filename in which to record the command history is \"$HOME/foobar.baz\"..*" \
"show history filename (~/foobar.baz)"
HOME is a windows path, like C:\foo\bar. When it is used in gdb_test to match
output, the error is thrown because backslash is a special character in
regular expression. This patch is to escape backslash to fix this
error by using string_to_regexp.

* gdb.base/setshow.exp: Test that relative paths passed to
'set history filename' are converted to absolute paths.
I saw some test cases in gdb.base/default.exp and gdb.base/setshow.exp
are enabling the history saving.
Hence .gdb_history file is modified with history information even
though, by default, we have History saving disabled.
So we should modify GDB test cases so that history saving should stay
off for all test cases.

* gdb.base/setshow.exp: Add test case.
Currently, several commands take "0" or "-1" to mean "unlimited".
"show" knows when to print "unlimited":
(gdb) show height
Number of lines gdb thinks are in a page is 45.
(gdb) set height 0
(gdb) show height
Number of lines gdb thinks are in a page is unlimited.
However, the user can't herself specify "unlimited" directly:
(gdb) set height unlimited
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb)
This patch addresses that, by adjusting the set handler for all
integer/uinteger/zuinteger_unlimited commands to accept literal
"unlimited". It also installs a completer. Presently, we complete on
symbols by default, and at
<http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-03/msg00864.html> I've
shown a WIP prototype that tried to keep that half working in these
commands. In the end, it turned out to be more complicated than
justifiable, IMO. It's super rare to want to pass the value of a
variable/symbol in the program to a GDB set/show knob. That'll still
work, it's just that we won't assist with completion anymore. This
patch just sticks with the simple, and completes on "unlimited", and
nothing else. This simplification means that
"set he<tab><tab>"
is all it takes to get to:
"set height unlimited"
The patch then goes through all integer/uinteger/zuinteger_unlimited
commands in the tree, and updates both the online help and the manual
to mention that "unlimited" is accepted in addition to 0/-1. In the
cases where the command had no online help text at all, this adds it.
I've tried to make the texts read in a way that "unlimited" is
suggested before "0" or "-1" is.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.
