Tom de Vries 947f759778 [gdb/tui,c++17] Fix NULL string_view in tui_partial_win_by_name
When building gdb with CFLAGS=-std=gnu17 and CXXFLAGS=-std=gnu++17 and running
test-case gdb.tui/new-layout.exp, we run into:
...
UNRESOLVED: gdb.tui/new-layout.exp: left window box after shrink (ll corner)
FAIL: gdb.tui/new-layout.exp: right window box after shrink (ll corner)
...

In a minimal form, we run into an abort when issuing a winheight command:
...
$ gdb -tui -ex "winheight src - 5"
   <tui stuff>
Aborted (core dumped)
$
...
with this backtrace at the abort:
...
\#0  0x0000000000438db0 in std::char_traits<char>::length (__s=0x0)
     at /usr/include/c++/9/bits/char_traits.h:335
\#1  0x000000000043b72e in std::basic_string_view<char, \
   std::char_traits<char> >::basic_string_view (this=0x7fffffffd4f0, \
   __str=0x0) at /usr/include/c++/9/string_view:124
\#2  0x000000000094971b in tui_partial_win_by_name (name="src")
     at src/gdb/tui/tui-win.c:663
...
due to a NULL comparison which constructs a string_view object from NULL:
...
   657  /* Answer the window represented by name.  */
   658  static struct tui_win_info *
   659  tui_partial_win_by_name (gdb::string_view name)
   660  {
   661    struct tui_win_info *best = nullptr;
   662
   663    if (name != NULL)
...

In gdbsupport/gdb_string_view.h, we either use:
- gdb's copy of libstdc++-v3/include/experimental/string_view, or
- the standard implementation of string_view, when built with C++17 or later
  (which in gcc's case comes from libstdc++-v3/include/std/string_view)

In the first case, there's support for constructing a string_view from a NULL
pointer:
...
      /*constexpr*/ basic_string_view(const _CharT* __str)
      : _M_len{__str == nullptr ? 0 : traits_type::length(__str)},
        _M_str{__str}
      { }
...
but in the second case, there's not:
...
      __attribute__((__nonnull__)) constexpr
      basic_string_view(const _CharT* __str) noexcept
      : _M_len{traits_type::length(__str)},
        _M_str{__str}
      { }
...

Fix this by removing the NULL comparison altogether.

Build on x86_64-linux with CFLAGS=-std=gnu17 and CXXFLAGS=-std=gnu++17, and
tested.

		   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.
