Pedro Alves 2f408ecb92 Use ui_file_as_string throughout more
This replaces most of the remaining ui_file_xstrdup calls with
ui_file_as_string calls.  Whenever a call was replaced, that led to a
cascade of other necessary adjustments throughout, to make the code
use std::string instead of raw pointers.  And then whenever I added a
std::string as member of a struct, I needed to adjust
allocation/destruction of said struct to use new/delete instead of
xmalloc/xfree.

The stopping point was once gdb built again.  These doesn't seem to be
a way to reasonably split this out further.

Maybe-not-obvious changes:

 - demangle_for_lookup returns a cleanup today.  To get rid of that,
   and avoid unnecessary string dupping/copying, this introduces a
   demangle_result_storage type that the caller instantiates and
   passes to demangle_for_lookup.

 - Many methods returned a "char *" to indicate that the caller owns
   the memory and must free it.  Those are switched to return a
   std::string instead.  Methods that return a "view" into some
   internal string return a "const char *" instead.  I.e., we only
   copy/allocate when necessary.

		   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.
