This rewrites gdb's TRY/CATCH to plain C++ try/catch. The patch was
largely written by script, though one change (to a comment in
common-exceptions.h) was reverted by hand.

I ran across a comment in symfile.c today:
/* Clear globals which might have pointed into a removed objfile.
FIXME: It's not clear which of these are supposed to persist
between expressions and which ought to be reset each time. */
It seems to me that this can be clarified: the parser entry points
ought to reset the innermost block tracker (and the expression context
block), and these should not be considered valid for code to use at
arbitrary times -- only immediately after an expression has been
parsed.
This patch implements this idea. This could be further improved by
removing the parser globals and changing the parser functions to
return this information, but I have not done this.
Tested by the buildbot.

A customer noticed some mildly odd MI output, where CLI output was
split into multiple MI strings at unusual boundaries, like this:
~"$1 = (b => true"
~", p => 0x407260"
This is technically correct according to the MI spec, but still
unusual, in that there's no particular reason for the string to be
split where it is.
I tracked this down to a call to gdb_flush in generic_val_print.
Then, I went through all calls to gdb_flush and removed the ones I
thought were superfluous. In particular:
* Any call in the value-printing code;
* Likewise the type-printing code (just a single call); and
* Any call that immediately followed a printf that obviously
ended with a newline, my belief being that gdb's standard output
streams are line buffered (by inheriting the behavior from stdio)
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 29.
I didn't add a new test case. I tend to think we don't necessarily
want to specify this behavior in the tests. Let me know what you
think of this.

This removes the ALL_OBJSECTIONS macro, replacing its uses with ranged

The special code in this macro for noticing a "break" from the inner
loop was only needed in a single place; so rather than try to
replicate this, I've simply replaced that use with a "goto".

This commit applies all changes made after running the gdb/copyright.py
script.
Note that one file was flagged by the script, due to an invalid
copyright header
(gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/element_access/char/empty.cc).
As the file was copied from GCC's libstdc++-v3 testsuite, this commit
leaves this file untouched for the time being; a patch to fix the header
was sent to gcc-patches first.

"backtrace full". This code does not use ui-out, so the styling is
done using the low-level API.

commit 3322c5d9a1 ("Remove unneeded explicit .o targets") broke the
build with clang, because -Wno-format-nonliteral was in fact needed.
This patch fixes the problem by introducing

seems preferable to reverting the patch because now the warning
suppression is more targeted.

This change/patch substitues BLOCK_ENTRY_PC for BLOCK_START in
places where BLOCK_START is used to obtain the address at which
execution should enter the block. Since blocks can now contain
non-contiguous ranges, the BLOCK_START - which is still be the
very lowest address in the block - might not be the same as
BLOCK_ENTRY_PC.
There is a change to infrun.c which is less obvious and less mechanical.

This changes two out parameters of build_address_symbolic to be
std::string, and updates the callers. This allows removing some
cleanups.
This patch also moves the declaration of build_address_symbolic out of
defs.h. I think that many things in defs.h should be elsewhere
instead. In this case, I moved the declaration to valprint.h, becuase
there is no "printcmd.h" -- but perhaps it would be better to
introduce that instead.

Function lookup_minimal_symbol_and_objfile iterates on all objfiles and
calls lookup_minimal_symbol for each of them, effectively searching in all
objfiles. lookup_bound_minimal_symbol calls lookup_minimal_symbol with NULL,
which also effectively searches all objfiles. AFAIK, they do exactly the same
thing, so we can get rid of one (and lookup_minimal_symbol_and_objfile happens
to be the most inefficient because it ends up n^2 on the number of objfiles).
Tested in both aarch64-linux-gnu and amd64-linux-gnu. No regressions.

* printcmd.c (last_examine_address): Change type to

struct value is internally reference counted and so, while it also has
some ownership rules unique to it, it makes sense to use a gdb_ref_ptr
when managing it automatically.
This patch removes the existing unique_ptr specialization in favor of
a reference-counted pointer. It also introduces two other
clarifications:
1. Rename value_free to value_decref, which I think is more in line
with what the function actually does; and
2. Change release_value to return a gdb_ref_ptr. This change allows
us to remove the confusing release_value_or_incref function,
primarily by making it much simpler to reason about the result of
release_value.

This is a command we somehow forgot to contribute at the time the Ada
language was first contributed to the FSF. This command allows
the user to change the maximum size we allow when reading memory
from dynamic objects (the default is 65536 bytes).
At the moment, this limit is only used by Ada, and so the implementation
is kept inside ada-lang.c. However, it is conceivable that other language
might want to use it also to handle the same kind of issues; for instance,
this might be useful when handling dynamic types in C. So the name
of the setting was made language-neutral, to allow for this.
Note that an alias for "set var" needs to be introduced as well.
We are not adding a test for that, since this is a feature that is
already exercized by numerous existing tests.

This converts observers from using a special source-generating script
to be plain C++. This version of the patch takes advantage of C++11
by using std::function and variadic templates; incorporates Pedro's
patches; and renames the header file to "observable.h" (this change
eliminates the need for a clean rebuild).
Note that Pedro's patches used a template lambda in tui-hooks.c, but
this failed to compile on some buildbot instances (presumably due to
differing C++ versions); I replaced this with an ordinary template
function.
Regression tested on the buildbot.

This adds target_float_to_string and target_float_from_string,
which dispatch to the corresponding floatformat_ or decimal_ routines.
Existing users of those routines are changed to use the new
target-float routines instead (most of those places already handle
both binary and decimal FP).
In addition, two other places are changes to use target_float_from_string:
- define_symbol in stabsread.c, when parsing a floating-point literal
from stabs debug info
- gdbarch-selftest.c when initializing a target format values (to
eliminate use of DOUBLEST there).

This patch adds support for handling format strings to both
floatformat_to_string and decimal_to_string, and then uses
those routines to implement ui_printf formatted printing.
There is already a subroutine printf_decfloat that ui_printf uses to
handle decimal FP. This is renamed to printf_floating and updated
to handle both binary and decimal FP. This includes the following
set of changes:
- printf_decfloat currently parses the format string again to determine
the intended target format. This seems superfluous since the common
parsing code in parse_format_string already did this, but then did
not pass the result on to its users. Fixed by splitting the decfloat_arg
argument class into three distinct classes, and passing them through.
- Now we can rename printf_decfloat to printf_floating and also call it
for the argument classes representing binary FP types.
- The code will now use the argclass to detect the type the value should
be printed at, and converts the input value to this type if necessary.
To remain compatible with current behavior, for binary FP the code
instead tries to re-interpret the input value as a FP type of the
same size if that exists. (Maybe this behavior is more confusing
than useful -- but this can be changed later if we want to ...)
- Finally, we can use floatformat_to_string / decimal_to_string passing
the format string to perform the formatted output using the desired
target FP type.
Note that we no longer generate different code depending on whether or not
the host supports "long double" -- this check is obsolete anyway since C++11
mandates "long double", and in any case a %lg format string is intended to
refer to the *target* long double type, not the host version.
Note also that formatted printing of DFP numbers may not work correctly,
since it attempts to use the host printf to do so (and makes unwarranted
assumptions about the host ABI while doing so!). This is no change to
the current behavior -- I simply moved the code from printf_decfloat to
the decimal_to_string routine in dfp.c. If we want to fix it in the
future, that is a more appropriate place anyway.

The print_floating routine currently makes a lot of assumptions about host
and target floating point formats. This patch cleans up many of those.
One problem is that print_floating may currently be called with types
that are not actually floating-point types, and it tries hard to output
those as floating-point values anyway. However, there is only one single
caller of print_floating where this can ever happen: print_scalar_formatted.
And in fact, it is much simpler to handle the case where the value to be
printed is not already of floating-point type right there.
So this patch changes print_scalar_formatted to handle the 'f' format
as follows:
- If the value to be printed is already of floating-point type, just
call print_floating on it.
- Otherwise, if there is a standard target floating-point type of
the same size as the value, call print_floating using that type.
- Otherwise, just print the value as if the 'f' format had not been
specified at all.
This has the overall effect to printing everything the same way as
the old code did, but is overall a lot simpler. (Also, it would
allow us to change the above strategy more easily, if that might
be a more intuitive user interface. For example, in the third
case above, maybe an error would be more appropriate?)
Given that change, print_floating can become much simpler. In particular,
we now always have a floating-point format that we can consult. This
means we can use the floating-point format to programmatically determine
the number of digits necessary to print the value.
The current code uses a hard-coded value of 9, 17, or 35 digits. Note
that this matches the DECIMAL_DIG values for IEEE-32, IEEE-64, and
IEEE-128. (Actually, for IEEE-128 the correct value is 36 -- the 35
seems to be an oversight.) The DECIMAL_DIG value is defined to be
the smallest number so that any number in the target format, when
printed to this number of digits and then scanned back into a binary
floating-point number, will result in the original value.
Now that we always have a FP format, we can just compute the DECIMAL_DIG
value using the formula from the C standard. This will be correct for
*all* FP formats, not just the above list, and it will be correct (as
opposed to current code) if the target formats differ from the host ones.
The patch moves the new logic to a new floatformat_to_string routine
(analogous to the existing decimal_to_string). The print_floating
routine now calls floatformat_to_string or decimal_to_string, making
the separate print_decimal_floating and generic_val_print_decfloat routines
unnecessary.

This cleans up a number of interfaces in dfp.c / dfp.h. Specifically:
- The decimal_from_string / decimal_to_string routines are C++-ified
to operate on std::string instead of character buffers. In the
decimal_from_string, the boolean return value now actually is bool
instead of an int.
- The decimal_from_integral and decimal_from_doublest routines take
an struct value as input. This is not really appropriate at the low
level the DFP routines sit, so this replaced them with new routines
decimal_from_longest / decimal_from_ulongest / decimal_from_doublest
that operate on contents instead.
- To mirror the decimal_from_[u]longest, a new decimal_to_longest
routine is added as well, which can be used in unpack_long to
avoid an unnecessary conversion via DOUBLEST.
Note that the decimal_from_longest / decimal_from_ulongest routines
are actually more powerful than decimal_from_integral: the old routine
would only accept integer *types* of at most four bytes size, while
the new routines accept all integer *values* that fit in an [u]int32_t,
no matter which type they came from. The DFP tests are updated to
allow for this larger range of integers that can be converted.

This renames a few functions -- skip_spaces_const,

the "_const" suffix and instead rely on overloading.
This makes future const fixes simpler by reducing the number of lines
that must be changed. I think it is also not any less clear, as all
these functions have the same interface as their non-const versions by
design. Furthermore there's an example of using an overload in-tree
already, namely check_for_argument.
This patch was largely created using some perl one-liners; then a few
fixes were applied by hand.

PR gdb/21675 points out a few regressions in scalar printing.
One type of regression is due to not carrying over the old handling of
floating point printing -- where a format like "/d" causes a floating
point number to first be cast to a signed integer. This patch restores
this behavior.
The other regression is a longstanding bug in print_octal_chars: one of
the constants was wrong. This patch fixes the constant and adds static
asserts to help catch this sort of error.
