Pedro Alves a474bd8eee Eliminate interp::quiet_p
This commit removes interp::quiet_p / interp_quiet_p /
interp_set_quiet, because AFAICS, it doesn't really do anything.

interp_quiet is only ever checked inside interp_set nowadays:

  if (!first_time && !interp_quiet_p (interp))
    {
      xsnprintf (buffer, sizeof (buffer),
		 "Switching to interpreter \"%.24s\".\n", interp->name);
      current_uiout->text (buffer);
    }

I did a bit of archaelogy, and found that back in 4a8f6654 (2003), it
was also called in another place, to decide whether to print the CLI
prompt.

AFAICS, that condition is always false today, making that if/then
block always dead code.  If we remove that code, then there are no
interp_quiet_p uses left in the tree, so we can remove it all.

There are two paths that lead to interp_set calls:

#1 - When installing the top level interpreter.  In this case,
FIRST_TIME is true.

#2 - In interpreter_exec_cmd.  In this case, the interpreter is always
set quiet before interp_set is called.

Grepping a gdb.log of an x86_64 GNU/Linux run for "Switching to
interpreter" (before this patch) doesn't find any hits.

I suspect the intention of this message was to support something like
a "set interpreter ..." command that would change the interpreter
permanently.  But there's no such command.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23.

		   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.
