Don Breazeal b16f8a3b1e Optimized-out pointer: New test for error handling
This patch implements a test that ensures that with "set print object
on", -var-create returns "<optimized out>" for an optimized out pointer
to structure, rather than throwing an error, while also ensuring that
any attempt to dereference the pointer *will* throw an error.

It uses the dwarf assembler to construct the appropriate debug info
to represent a pointer-to-struct in the program as optimized out,
and then accesses that pointer in various ways.  The test uses both
the console interpreter and the MI interpreter.
