A few functions in value.c were accessing the internal fields of
struct value. However, in these cases it seemed simpler to change
them to use the public API rather than convert them to be methods.

This commit finishes the task that was started in the previous
commit.
Now that all Python TUI window factories are correctly deleted when
the Python interpreter is shut down, we no longer need to dynamically
allocate the known_window_types map in tui-layout.c
This commit changes known_window_types to a statically allocated data
structure, removes the dynamic allocation from
initialize_known_windows, and then replaces lots of '->' with '.'
throughout this file.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

The previous commit relied on spotting when a Python defined TUI
window factory was deleted. I spotted that the window factories are
not deleted when GDB shuts down its Python environment, they are only
deleted when one window factory replaces another. Consider this
example Python script:
class TestWindowFactory:
def __init__(self, msg):
self.msg = msg
print("Entering TestWindowFactory.__init__: %s" % self.msg)
def __call__(self, tui_win):
print("Entering TestWindowFactory.__call__: %s" % self.msg)
return TestWindow(tui_win, self.msg)
def __del__(self):
print("Entering TestWindowFactory.__del__: %s" % self.msg)
gdb.register_window_type("test_window", TestWindowFactory("A"))
gdb.register_window_type("test_window", TestWindowFactory("B"))
And this GDB session:
(gdb) source tui.py
Entering TestWindowFactory.__init__: A
Entering TestWindowFactory.__init__: B
Entering TestWindowFactory.__del__: B
(gdb) quit
Notice that when the 'B' window replaces the 'A' window we see the 'A'
object being deleted. But, when Python is shut down (after the
'quit') the 'B' object is never deleted.
Instead, GDB retains a reference to the window factory object, which
forces the Python object to remain live even after the Python
interpreter itself has been shut down.
The references themselves are held in a dynamically allocated
std::unordered_map (in tui/tui-layout.c) which is never deallocated,
thus the underlying Python references are never decremented to zero,
and so GDB never tries to delete these Python objects.
This commit is the first half of the work to clean up this edge case.
All gdbpy_tui_window_maker objects (the objects that implement the
TUI window factory callback for Python defined TUI windows), are now
linked together into a global list using the intrusive list mechanism.
When GDB shuts down the Python interpreter we can now walk this global
list and release the reference that is held to the underlying Python
object. By releasing this reference the Python object will now be
deleted.
I've added a new assert in gdbpy_tui_window_maker::operator(), this
will catch the case where we somehow end up in here after having
reset the reference to the underlying Python object. I don't think
this should ever happen though as we only clear the references when
shutting down the Python interpreter, and the ::operator() function is
only called when trying to apply a new TUI layout - something that
shouldn't happen while GDB itself is shutting down.
This commit does not update the std::unordered_map in tui-layout.c,
that will be done in the next commit.

The documentation for gdb.register_window_type says:
"... It's an error to try to replace one of the built-in windows,
but other window types can be replaced. ..."
I take this to mean that if I imported a Python script like this:
gdb.register_window_type('my_window', FactoryFunction)
Then GDB would have a new TUI window 'my_window', which could be
created by calling FactoryFunction(). If I then, in the same GDB
session imported a script which included:
gdb.register_window_type('my_window', UpdatedFactoryFunction)
Then GDB would replace the old 'my_window' factory with my new one,
GDB would now call UpdatedFactoryFunction().
This is pretty useful in practice, as it allows users to iterate on
their window implementation within a single GDB session.
However, right now, this is not how GDB operates. The second call to
register_window_type is basically ignored and the old window factory
is retained.
This is because in tui_register_window (tui/tui-layout.c) we use
std::unordered_map::emplace to insert the new factory function, and
emplace doesn't replace an existing element in an unordered_map.
In this commit, before the emplace call, I now search for an already
existing element, and delete any matching element from the map, the
emplace call will then add the new factory function.

PR build/30108 concerns building gdb documentation with
--with-sytem-readline. If the in-tree readline directory is
missing, though, the docs will fail to build:
make[4]: Entering directory '/home/keiths/work/readline-doc-issue/linux/gdb/doc'
make[4]: *** No rule to make target '../../../src/gdb/doc/../../readline/readline/doc/rluser.texi', needed by 'gdb.info'. Stop.
The listed file (and hsuser.texi) are conditionally included by gdb.texinfo.
When system readline is used, gdb/configure.ac will leave
READLINE_TEXI_INCFLAGS empty, causing doc/Makefile.in to output a line to
$BUILD/doc/GDBvn.texi with "@set SYSTEM_READLINE". This surpresses the
inclusion of the missing files. They are not needed or used in this
scenario.
However, GDB_DOC_SOURCE_INCLUDES always lists these two files as dependencies,
thus provoking the build error whenever readline/ is missing.
This patch fixes this by creating (essentially) a conditional setting of the
dependencies to be included from readline.
the early-out in wild_sort is not enough, it might still be
that filenames are equal _and_ the wildcard list doesn't specify
a sort order either. Don't call compare_section then.
Tested on all targets.

opcodes/mips: use .word/.short for undefined instructions
unknown 32-bit microMIPS instructions were disassembled as a raw
32-bit number with no '.word' directive. The above commit changed
this and added a '.word' directive before the 32-bit number.
It was pointed out on the mailing list, that for microMIPS it would be
better to display such 32-bit instructions using a '.short' directive
followed by two 16-bit values.
This commit updates the mips disassembler to do this, and adds a new
test that validates this output.
