Nick Clifton af03af8f55 Synchronize libiberty with gcc and add --no-recruse-limit option to tools that support name demangling.
This patch addresses the multitude of bug reports about resource exhaustion
in libiberty's name demangling code.  It adds a limit to the amount of
recursion that is allowed, before an error is triggered.  It also adds a
new demangling option to disable this limit.  (The limit is enabled by
default).

libiberty * cp-demangle.h (struct d_info): Add recursion_limit field.
	* cp-demangle.c (d_function_type): If the recursion limit is
	enabled and reached, return with a failure result.
        (d_demangle_callback): If the recursion limit is enabled, check
	for a mangled string that is so long that there is not enough
	stack space for the local arrays.
        * cplus-dem.c (struct work): Add recursion_level field.
	(demangle_nested_args): If the recursion limit is enabled and
	reached, return with a failure result.

include	* demangle.h (DMGL_RECURSE_LIMIT): Define.
        (DEMANGLE_RECURSION_LIMIT): Prototype.

binutuils * addr2line.c (demangle_flags): New static variable.
        (long_options): Add --recurse-limit and --no-recurse-limit.

        (main): Handle --recurse-limit and --no-recurse-limit options.
        * cxxfilt.c (flags): Add DMGL_RECURSE_LIMIT.
        (long_options): Add --recurse-limit and --no-recurse-limit.
        (main): Handle new options.
        * dlltool.c (gen_def_file): Include DMGL_RECURSE_LIMIT in flags
        passed to cplus_demangle.
