Fix first time you type UP or DOWN in TUI's command window
The first time you type UP or DOWN arrow in the command window, GDB
should scroll the source window, but instead it displays the line
number and the file name in the command window(?).
What happens there is that the first time we call
tui_ui_out::do_field_int, it doesn't initialize m_line, because
m_start_of_line is -1, as set by the constructor; and then the
following call to tui_ui_out::do_field_string falls back to
cli_ui_out::do_field_string because m_line is zero.
The problem is caused by a typo in the C++ification of tui_ui_out,
commit 112e8700a6f, where m_line and m_start_of_line's initial values
were swapped from what they used to be:

Improve/fix the TUI's current source line highlight
With styling enabled, I think the way we display the TUI's
highlighted/current line is very ugly and distracting. The problem in
my view is that we reverse foreground/background in colored text as
well, leading to rainbow of background colors.
This patch changes that to something that I find much more sensible --
only reverse the default foreground/background colors, leave styled
text colors alone. If the foreground color is not the default
(because the text was styled), leave the foreground color as is. If
e.g., the terminal is fg=BLACK, and bg=WHITE, and the style wants to
print text in RED, reverse the background color (print in BLACK), but
still print the text in RED.

Testsuite: Ensure changing directory does not break the log file
get_compiler_info switches to a new log file before checking the compiler
to ensure the checks are not logged. Afterwards it restores back to using
the original log file. However, the logfile uses a relative path name -
if the current test has changed the current directory then all further
output for the test will be lost. This can confuse the code that collates
the main gdb.log file at the end of a FORCE_PARALLEL run.
fullpath-expand.exp calls gdb_compile after changing the current directory.
The "Ensure stack protection is off for GCC" patch added a call to
get_compiler_info from inside of gdb_compile, causing log file collection
to break for FORCE_PARALLEL runs.
The ideal solution would be to ensure the log file is always created using
an absolute path name. However, this is set at multiple points in
Makefile.in and in some instances just relies on dejagnu common code to set
the log file directory to "."
The simpler and safer solution is to override the builtin cd function. The
new function checks the current log file and if the path is relative, then
it resets the logging using an absolute path. Finally it calls the builtin
cd. This ensures get_compiler_info (and any other code) can correctly
backup and restore the current log file.

forgot to use the proper '$enable_unittest' variable when checking to
see whether to add selftest-related objects to 'srv_regobj'. This

This patch fixes the problem by using '$enable_unittest' instead of
'$development' when performing the check. As a reminder, it's
important to notice that '$enable_unittest's default value (i.e., when
the option '--enable-unit-tests' is not passed to configure) is the
same as '$development', so this patch doesn't affect the current
build.

gdb/riscv: Use legacy register numbers in default target description
When the target description support was added to RISC-V, the register
numbers assigned to the fflags, frm, and fcsr control registers in the
default target descriptions didn't match the register numbers used by
GDB before the target description support was added.
What this means is that if a tools exists in the wild that is using
hard-coded register number, setup to match GDB's old numbering, then
this will have been broken (for fflags, frm, and fcsr) by the move to
target descriptions. QEMU is such a tool.
There are a couple of solutions that could be used to work around this
issue:
- The user can create their own xml description file with the
register numbers setup to match their old tool, then load this by
telling GDB 'set tdesc filename FILENAME'.
- Update their old tool to use the newer default numbering scheme, or
better yet add proper target description support to their tool.
- We could have RISC-V GDB change to maintain the old defaults.
This patch changes GDB back to using the old numbering scheme.
This change is only visible to remote targets that don't supply their
own xml description file and instead rely on GDB's default numbering.
Note that even though 32bit-cpu.xml and 64bit-cpu.xml have changed,
the corresponding .c file has not, this is because the numbering added
to the registers in the xml files is number 0, this doesn't result in
any new C code being generated .

Fix crash when loading dwp files
When loading dwp files, we create an array of ELF sections indexed by the ELF
section index in the dwp file. The size of this array is calculated by
section_count, as returned by bfd_count_sections, plus 1 (to account for the
null section at index 0). However, when loading the bfd file, strtab/symtab
sections are not added to the list, nor do they increment section_count, so
section_count is actually smaller than the number of ELF sections.
This happens to work when using GNU dwp, which lays out .debug section first,
with sections like .shstrtab coming at the end. Other tools, like llvm-dwp, put
.strtab first, and gdb crashes when loading those dwp files.
For instance, with the current state of gdb, loading a file like this:
$ readelf -SW <file.dwp>
[ 0] <empty>
[ 1] .debug_foo PROGBITS ...
[ 2] .strtab STRTAB ...
... results in section_count = 2 (.debug is the only thing placed into
bfd->sections, so section_count + 1 == 2), and sectp->this_idx = 1 when mapping
over .debug_foo in dwarf2_locate_common_dwp_sections, which passes the
assertion that 1 < 2.
However, using a dwp file produced by llvm-dwp:
$ readelf -SW <file.dwp>

[ 1] .strtab STRTAB ...
[ 2] .debug_foo PROGBITS ...
... results in section_count = 2 (.debug is the only thing placed into

Disable styling when running in batch mode
The GCC Guality testsuite within GCC compiles C/C++ files in GCC at
various optimization levels then debugs them in GDB, checking that
program values can be read. This is done within the dejagnu framework.
The new style options in GDB have broken many of the tests due to the
testsuite being unable to process the new control characters. The fix
in Guality is to either to improve the string matching or to disable
styling on the cli or init file (after checking gdb is recent enough
to support styling).
This fix will also need making an any other testsuites in the wild
that use GDB.
An alternative would be to automatically disable styling when using GDB
in batch mode. The reasoning here is that batch mode is only used when
automating GDB and any output will be processed later either with text
processing tools or viewed in text editors, many of these will not
correctly handle the control characters by default. This ensures GDB
continues to work as expected. Anyone who explicitly wants styling in
batch mode can enable it either in the init file or adding to the batch
file - but that would not be the standard use case.
Patch simply disables style after reading the batch command flag, before
reading in the init file or batch file.

* main.c (captured_main_1): Disable styling in batch mode.

PowerPC __tls_get_addr arg parsing
The syntax we ended up with for -m32 -fPIC calls to __tls_get_addr is
rather weird.
bl __tls_get_addr+0x8000(gd0@tlsgd)@plt
This came about by accident, probably due to requiring the arg reloc
before the call reloc.
Of course the @plt really belongs with __tls_get_addr since it affects
the call rather than the call arg, and it isn't a great deal of
trouble to ensure the relocs are emitted in the correct order. This
patch supports a newer syntax, like so:
bl __tls_get_addr+0x8000@plt(gd0@tlsgd)

Use upper case for metasyntactic variables in "help find"
While answering a user's question on irc, I realized that the
metasyntactic variables in "help find" are not in upper case. As you
know this is one of my pet quests, so here is a patch to fix this.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 29.
