Just like other insns having byte and word forms, these can also make
use of the W modifier, which at the same time allows simplifying some
other code a little bit.
Simplfy gdb.exp by adding a function that will attempt to
compile a piece of code, then clean up, leaving the created
object.

I noticed that the TAGS target in gdb/testsuite/Makefile does not pick
up Tcl procs defined with proc_with_prefix or gdb_caching_proc. This
patch fixes this by updating the regexp.

* exec.c (try_open_exec_file): Use std::string.
This changes gdb_bfd_errmsg to return a std::string, removing a
cleanup. This approach may be slightly less efficient than the
previous code, but I don't believe this is very important in this
situation.

This removes a cleanup from add_path, replacing it with a use of
gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr. Note that this declaration had to be hoisted
somewhat, to avoid inteference from the "goto"s in this function.

* source.c (add_path): Use gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr.
The code implementing gdb.objfiles() returns a list of objfiles for the
current program space (the program space of the selected inferior). The
documentation for the gdb.objfiles() Python method, however, states:
Return a sequence of all the objfiles current known to GDB.
That sounds wrong to me. I tried to phrase to be more precise.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* python.texi (Objfiles In Python): Update gdb.objfiles() doc.
This patch adds an objfiles method to the Progspace object, which
returns a sequence of the objfiles associated to that program space. I
chose a method rather than a property for symmetry with gdb.objfiles().

gdb/doc/ChangeLog:

Progspace.objfiles method.
(Objfiles In Python): Mention that gdb.objfiles() is identical
to gdb.selected_inferior().progspace.objfiles().
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-progspace.exp: Test the Progspace.objfiles
method.
This patch adds a progspace property to the gdb.Inferior type, which
allows getting the gdb.Progspace object associated to that inferior.
In conjunction with the following patch, this will allow scripts iterate
on objfiles associated with a particular inferior.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* python/py-inferior.c (infpy_get_progspace): New function.
(inferior_object_getset): Add progspace property.
* NEWS: Mention the new property.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:

Inferior.progspace.
(Program Spaces In Python): Document that
gdb.current_progspace() is the same as
gdb.selected_inferior().progspace.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-inferior.exp: Add tests for Inferior.progspace
and a few other Inferior properties when the Inferior is no
longer valid.
I noticed a spot in rust-lang.c where the placeholder "foo" was used
instead of the actual field name. This patch fixes the bug.

* gdb.rust/simple.exp: Add test for enum field access error.
While testing my Rust compiler patch to fix the DWARF representation
of Rust enums (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/54004), I found
a gdb crash coming from one of the Rust test cases.
The bug here is that the new variant support in gdb does not handle
the case where there are no variants in the enum.
This patch fixes the problem in a straightforward way. Note that the
new tests are somewhat lax because I did not want to try to fully fix
this corner case for older compilers. If you think that's
unacceptable, let meknow.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 28 using several versions of the Rust
compiler. I intend to push this to the 8.2 branch as well.

Update dg-extract-results.* from gcc
dg-extract-results.sh was moved from the "gdb/contrib/" directory to
the toplevel "contrib/" directory. However, src-release.sh was not
updated in order to include "contrib/" in the tarball release of GDB.
This makes it very inconvenient to run and analyze the GDB testsuite
results. This commit adds "contrib/" to the list of support
directories that are included in each GDB release.

* src-release.sh (GDB_SUPPORT_DIRS): Add "contrib".
Printing a GDB Python object is notoriously not helpful:
>>> print(gdb.selected_inferior())
<gdb.Inferior object at 0x7fea59aed198>
>>> print(gdb.objfiles())
[<gdb.Objfile object at 0x7fea59b57c90>]
This makes printing debug traces more difficult than it should be. This
patch provides some repr() implementation for these two types (more to
come if people agree with the idea, but I want to test the water first).
Here's the same example as above, but with this patch:
>>> print(gdb.selected_inferior())
<gdb.Inferior num=1>
>>> print(gdb.objfiles())
[<gdb.Objfile filename=/home/emaisin/build/binutils-gdb-gcc-git/gdb/test>]
I implemented repr rather than str, because when printing a list (or
another container I suppose), Python calls the repr method of the
elements. This is useful when printing a list of inferiors or objfiles.
The print(gdb.objfiles()) above would not have worked if I had
implemented str.
I found this post useful to understand the difference between repr and
str:

When encoding VEX, we can swap destination and source only if there are

* config/tc-i386.c (build_vex_prefix): Swap destination and
source only if there are more than 1 register operand.
Various moves come in load and store forms, and just like on the GPR
and FPU sides there would better be only one pattern. In some cases this
is not feasible because the opcodes are too different, but quite a few
cases follow a similar standard scheme. Introduce Opcode_SIMD_FloatD and
Opcode_SIMD_IntD, generalize handling in operand_size_match() (reverse
operand handling there simply needs to match "straight" operand one),
and fix a long standing, but so far only latent bug with when to zap
found_reverse_match.
Also once again drop IgnoreSize where pointlessly applied to templates
touched anyway as well as *word when redundant with Reg*.
In quite a few cases the .s suffix or {load} / {store} prefixes did not
work as intended, or produced errors when they're supposed to be ignored
when it is not possible to carry out the request.
The change here re-purposes(?) the .s suffix to no longer mean "store"
(if that's what 's' did stand for), since the forms used in the base
templates are not consistently loads (and we unlikely want to change
that). The pseudo prefixes will now fulfill what their names say, i.e.
{load} now only ever produces a load form encoding (if available) while
{store} only ever produces a store form one (again if available). This
requires minimal test suite adjustments, while the majority of the
changes there are simply additions.
