Mark Wielaard 743649fd80 Use GCC5/DWARF5 DW_AT_noreturn to mark functions that don't return normally.
Add a flag field is_noreturn to struct func_type. Make calling_convention
a small bit field to not increase the size of the struct. Set is_noreturn
if the new GCC5/DWARF5 DW_AT_noreturn is set on a DW_TAG_subprogram.
Use this information to warn the user before doing a finish or return from
a function that does not return normally to its caller.

(gdb) finish
warning: Function endless does not return normally.
Try to finish anyway? (y or n)

(gdb) return
warning: Function does not return normally to caller.
Make endless return now? (y or n)
