command repetition after using the `gdb.execute` Python function
fails (the previous command is not repeated anymore). This happens
because read_command_lines_1 sets dont_repeat, but the call to
prevent_dont_repeat in execute_gdb_command is later.
The fix is to move the call to prevent_dont_repeat to the beginning of
the function.

gdb.base/warning.exp tweaks
#1- Check that the warning is emitted.
#2- Avoid overriding INTERNAL_GDBFLAGS, as per documentated in
gdb/testsuite/README:
~~~
The testsuite does not override a value provided by the user.
~~~
We don't actually need to tweak INTERNAL_GDBFLAGS, we just need to
append out -data-directory to GDBFLAGS, because each passed
-data-directory option leads to a call to the warning:
$ ./gdb -data-directory=foo -data-directory=bar
Warning: foo: No such file or directory.
Warning: bar: No such file or directory.

* gdb.base/warning.exp: Don't override INTERNAL_FLAGS. Use
gdb_spawn_with_cmdline_opts instead of gdb_start. Check that we
see the expected warning.
trying to use a command like gdb.execute("show commands") in Python
fails. GDB ends up trying to run the "commands" command.
The reason is that GDB gets confused with the special "commands"
command. In process_next_line, the lookup_cmd_1 function returns the
cmd_list_element representing the "commands" sub-command of "show".
Lower, we check the cmd_list_element to see if it matches various
control commands by name, including the "commands" command. This is
where we wrongfully conclude that the executed command must be
"commands", when in reality it was "show commands".
The fix proposed in this patch removes the comparisons by name, instead
comparing the cmd_list_element object by pointer with the objects
created at initialization time.
Tested on the buildbot, though on a single builder (Fedora-x86_64-m64).
Move 'is_regular_file' from common-utils.c to filestuff.c
There is no reason for 'is_regular_file' to be in common-utils.c; it
belongs to 'filestuff.c'. This commit moves the function definition
and its prototype to the appropriate files.
The motivation behind this move is a failure that happens on certain
cross-compilation environments when compiling the IPA library, due to
the way gnulib probes the need for a 'stat' call replacement. Because
configure checks when cross-compiling are more limited, gnulib decides
that it needs to substitute the 'stat' calls its own 'rpl_stat';
however, the IPA library doesn't link with gnulib, which leads to an
error when compiling 'common-utils.c':
The most simple fix for this problem is to move 'is_regular_file' to
'filestuff.c', which is not used by IPA. This ends up making the
files more logically organized as well, since 'is_regular_file' is a
file operation.

Fix crash with empty Rust enum
While testing my Rust compiler patch to fix the DWARF representation
of Rust enums (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/54004), I found
a gdb crash coming from one of the Rust test cases.
The bug here is that the new variant support in gdb does not handle
the case where there are no variants in the enum.
This patch fixes the problem in a straightforward way. Note that the
new tests are somewhat lax because I did not want to try to fully fix
this corner case for older compilers. If you think that's
unacceptable, let meknow.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 28 using several versions of the Rust
compiler. I intend to push this to the 8.2 branch as well.

Set TYPE_LENGTH on a variant part
gdb represents a DW_TAG_variant_part as a union. While normally DWARF
would not set the size of a DW_TAG_variant_part, gdb's representation
requires the TYPE_LENGTH to be set.
This patch arranges to set the TYPE_LENGTH of a variant part if it has
not already been set.
This fixes some Rust regressions when testing against a version of
rustc that emits DW_TAG_variant_part.

Fix a small bug in gdb.rust/simple.rs
I noticed that gdb.rust/simple.rs had two local variables named "v".
This didn't previous cause problems, but with a newer rust compiler
this resulted in a test failure. (It should have failed all along, so
I suppose earlier passes were due to a compiler bug.)
