Pedro Alves d9de1fe3d5 Fix PR20494 - User input stops being echoed in CLI
This patch fixes a problem that problem triggers if you start an
inferior, e.g., with the "start" command, in a UI created with the
new-ui command, and then run a foreground execution command in the
main UI.  Once the program stops for the latter command, typing in the
main UI no longer echoes back to the user.

The problem revolves around this:

- gdb_has_a_terminal computes its result lazily, on first call.

  that is what saves gdb's initial main UI terminal state (the UI
  associated with stdin):

          our_terminal_info.ttystate = serial_get_tty_state (stdin_serial);

  This is the state that target_terminal_ours() restores.

- In this scenario, the gdb_has_a_terminal function happens to be
  first ever called from within the target_terminal_init call in
  startup_inferior:

      (top-gdb) bt
      #0  gdb_has_a_terminal () at src/gdb/inflow.c:157
      #1  0x000000000079db22 in child_terminal_init_with_pgrp () at src/gdb/inflow.c:217
       [...]
      #4  0x000000000065bacb in target_terminal_init () at src/gdb/target.c:456
      #5  0x00000000004676d2 in startup_inferior () at src/gdb/fork-child.c:531
       [...]
      #7  0x000000000046b168 in linux_nat_create_inferior () at src/gdb/linux-nat.c:1112
       [...]
      #9  0x00000000005f20c9 in start_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at src/gdb/infcmd.c:657

If the command to start the inferior is issued on the main UI, then
readline will have deprepped the terminal when we reach the above, and
the problem doesn't appear.

If however the command is issued on a non-main UI, then when we reach
that gdb_has_a_terminal call, the main UI's terminal state is still
set to whatever readline has sets it to in rl_prep_terminal, which
happens to have echo disabled.  Later, when the following synchronous
execution command finishes, we'll call target_terminal_ours to restore
gdb's the main UI's terminal settings, and that restores the terminal
state with echo disabled...

Conceptually, the fix is to move the gdb_has_a_terminal call earlier,
to someplace during GDB initialization, before readline/ncurses have
had a chance to change terminal settings.  Turns out that
"set_initial_gdb_ttystate" is exactly such a place.

I say conceptually, because the fix actually inlines the
gdb_has_a_terminal part that saves the terminal state in
set_initial_gdb_ttystate and then simplifies gdb_has_a_terminal, since
there's no point in making gdb_has_a_terminal do lazy computation.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	PR gdb/20494
	* inflow.c (our_terminal_info, initial_gdb_ttystate): Update
	comments.
	(enum gdb_has_a_terminal_flag_enum, gdb_has_a_terminal_flag):

README

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
