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.
As mentioned in the previous patch, I grepped for "\*\*) &" and found
one hit in completer.c.
I was about to post a patch that simply made
current_demangling_style_string const, and cast away constness at the
xfree site. However, looking deeper, it seem to be there's a lot of
dead code in the file.
First, all external callers of set_demangling_style are found in the
stabs reader, commented out for over 12 years:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2000-12/msg00214.html
I don't think it's likely we'll ever make the older mangling schemes
work for stabs. If we do, we can rediscuss the approach then.
Then, set_demangling_command has special handling for unknown
demangling styles, but "set demangle-style" is an enum command, and
with those, the user can only specify a known enumeration value, by
design:
(gdb) set demangle-style gangnam-style
Undefined item: "gangnam-style".
This patch removes all that dead code, then makes
current_demangling_style_string point to an element of
demangling_style_names, as the FIXME suggests, and then makes
current_demangling_style_string, removing the need for the 'const char
**' cast.

* dbxread.c (read_ofile_symtab, process_one_symbol): Remove
commented out code.
* demangle.c (current_demangling_style_string): Make it const.
(set_demangling_command): Assert the demangling style is known.
Remove all handling of unknown styles. Set
'current_demangling_style_string' to an element of the
demangling_style_names array.
(set_demangling_style): Delete.
(_initialize_demangler): Set current_demangling_style_string to the
element of the demangling_style_names array that corresponds to
the default demangling style. Remove FIXME note. Don't call
set_demangling_style.
* gdb-demangle.h (set_demangling_style): Remove declaration.
Two modifications:
1. The addition of 2013 to the copyright year range for every file;
2. The use of a single year range, instead of potentially multiple
year ranges, as approved by the FSF.
