PR python/20129 concerns the error message one gets from a command
like "disable frame-filter global NoSuchFilter". Currently this
throws a second, unexpected, exception due to the use of a
non-existing variable named "name".
This patch adds regression tests and fixes a couple of spots to use
the correct variable name.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 23.

PR gdb/17210 concerns a possible memory leak in read_memory_robust.
The bug can happen because read_memory_robust allocates memory, does
not install any cleanups, and invokes QUIT. Similarly, target_read
calls QUIT, so it too can potentially throw.
The fix is to install cleanups to guard the allocated memory.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 23. I couldn't think of a way to
test this, so no new test; and of course this means it should have
more careful review.

In AArch64 displaced stepping and fast tracepoint, GDB/GDBserver needs
to check whether the offset can fit in the range. We are using int32_t
for offset, it is sufficient to get an offset from an instruction, but
it is not enough to get an offset from two addresses. For example,
we have a BL in shared lib which is at 0x0000002000040774, and the
scratch pad for displaced stepping is at 0x400698. The offset can't
fit in 28 bit imm. However, since we are using int32_t for offset, GDB
thinks the offset can fit it, and generate the B instruction with wrong
offset.

When I implement linux_target_ops.get_syscall_trapinfo for aarch64 and arm,
I find the second parameter sysret isn't used at all. In RSP, we don't
need syscall return value either, because GDB can figure out the return
value from registers content got by 'g' packet.
This patch is to remove them.

In 82075af2c1 (Implement 'catch syscall'
for gdbserver), only x86 is supported, but the test can still be run
on other linux targets, like aarch64 and ppc, with native-gdbserver.
This causes many new fails.

Instead, we can insert catch point, and resume the program to see whether
catch syscall is supported or not.

aarch64_opnd_info used bitfields to hold vector element indices,
but values were stored into those bitfields before their ranges had
been checked. This meant large invalid indices could be silently
truncated to smaller valid indices.
The two obvious fixes were to do the range checking earlier or use
a full 64-bit field for the index. I went for the latter for two
reasons:
- Doing the range checking in operand_general_constraint_met_p
seems structurally cleaner than doing it while parsing.
- The bitfields didn't really buy us anything. The imm field
of the union is already 128 bits, so we can use a full int64_t
index without growing the structure.
The patch also adds missing range checks for the elements in a register
list index.

Rust prefers to not specify the return type of a function when it is unit
(`()`). The type is also referred to as "void" in debuginfo but not in actual
usage, so we should never be printing "void" when the language is Rust.
