Pedro Alves eb3ff9a551 Introduce class completion_tracker & rewrite completion<->readline interaction
This patch reworks the whole completion machinery, and prepares it
for later enhancements.

Adds a new "completion_tracker" class that is meant to hold everything
about the state of the current completion operation.

This class now has the responsibility of tracking the list of
completion matches, and checking whether the max completions limit has
been reached.  You can look at this as this patch starting out by
C++fying the existing "completion_tracker" in symtab.c (it's just an
htab_t typedef currently), moving it to completer.h/c, and then making
it a class/generalizing/enhancing it.

Unlike with the current tracking, completion_tracker now checks
whether the limit has been reached on each completion match list
insertion.  This both simplifies the max-completions handling code
(maybe_add_completion_enum is gone, for example), and is a
prerequisite for follow up patches.

The current completion_tracker is only used for symbol completions,
and the symbol code gets at the current instance via globals.  This
patch cleans that up by adding a completion_tracker reference to the
signature of the completion functions, and passing the tracker around
everywhere necessary.

Then, the patch changes how the completion match list is handed over
to readline.  Currently, we're using the rl_completion_entry_function
readline entry point, and the patch switches to
rl_attempted_completion_function.  A following patch will want to let
GDB itself decide the common completion prefix between all matches
(what readline calls the "lowest common denominator"), instead of
having readline compute it, and that's not possible with the
rl_completion_entry_function entry point.  Also,
rl_attempted_completion_function lets GDB hand over the match list to
readline as an array in one go instead of passing down matches one by
one, so from that angle it's a nicer entry point anyway.

Lastly, the patch catches exceptions around the readline entry points,
because we can't let C++ exceptions cross readline.  We handle that in
the readline input entry point, but the completion entry point isn't
guarded, so GDB can abort if completion throws.  E.g., in current
master:

 (gdb) b -function "fun<tab>
 terminate called after throwing an instance of 'gdb_exception_RETURN_MASK_ERROR'
 Aborted (core dumped)

This patch fixes that.  This will be exercised in the new tests added
later on in the series.

		   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.
