This is the beginning of a series of patches that convert the linux
low targets into classes derived from linux_process_target. At the
end of the series we obtain a class hierarchy that looks like this:
process_stratum_target
^
|
|-- linux_process_target
^
|
|-- x86_target (defined in linux-x86-low)
|-- aarch64_target (defined in linux-aarch64-low)
|-- ppc_target (defined in linux-ppc-low)
|-- ...
In several cases, linux_process_target simply forwards a target op
request to a corresponding linux_target_ops function. For these
cases, the definition in linux_process_target will be removed and the
definition will be left to the deriving linux low target class; using
inheritance provides a nice and natural, object-oriented
simplification in these cases.
The series converts linux_target_ops into protected methods of
linux_process_target one by one. Throughout the series, based on the
needs, static functions defined in linux-low.cc are converted to
private methods of linux_process_target as well. This is done either
as separate patches or as integrated into a patch that convert a
particular linux_target_op into a method.
The series ends with the patch titled "gdbserver/linux-low: delete
'linux_target_ops' and 'the_low_target'".
Built and regression-tested on x86_64-linux. The following linux low
targets have been built (but not tested) via cross-compilation:
aarch64, arm, m68k, mips, ppc, riscv, s390, sh, sparc. The other
targets (bfin, cris, crisv32, ia64, m32r, nios2, tic6x, tile, xtensa)
were neither built nor tested.

Implement RISC-V/Linux support for both RV64 and RV32 systems, including
XML target description handling based on features determined, GPR and
FPR regset support including dynamic sizing of the latter, and software
breakpoint handling. Define two NT_FPREGSET regsets of a different size
matching the FPR sizes supported for generic `gdbserver' code to pick
from according to what the OS supplies.
Also handle a glibc bug where ELF_NFPREG is defined in terms of NFPREG,
however NFPREG is nowhere defined.
