gdb: Restructure the completion_tracker class

In this commit I rewrite how the completion tracker tracks the
completions, and builds its lowest common denominator (LCD) string.
The LCD string is now built lazily when required, and we only track
the completions in one place, the hash table, rather than maintaining
a separate vector of completions.

The motivation for these changes is that the next commit will add the
ability to remove completions from the list, removing a completion
will invalidate the LCD string, so we need to keep hold of enough
information to recompute the LCD string as needed.

Additionally, keeping the completions in a vector makes removing a
completion expensive, so better to only keep the completions in the
hash table.

This commit doesn't add any new functionality itself, and there should
be no user visible changes after this commit.

For testing, I ran the testsuite as usual, but I also ran some manual
completion tests under valgrind, and didn't get any reports about
leaked memory.

gdb/ChangeLog:

* completer.c (completion_tracker::completion_hash_entry): Define
new class.
(advance_to_filename_complete_word_point): Call
recompute_lowest_common_denominator.
(completion_tracker::completion_tracker): Call discard_completions
to setup the hash table.
(completion_tracker::discard_completions): Allow for being called
from the constructor, pass new equal function, and element deleter
when constructing the hash table.  Initialise new class member
variables.
(completion_tracker::maybe_add_completion): Remove use of
m_entries_vec, and store more information into m_entries_hash.
(completion_tracker::recompute_lcd_visitor): New function, most
content taken from...
(completion_tracker::recompute_lowest_common_denominator):
...here, this now just visits each item in the hash calling the
above visitor.
(completion_tracker::build_completion_result): Remove use of
m_entries_vec, call recompute_lowest_common_denominator.
* completer.h (completion_tracker::have_completions): Remove use
of m_entries_vec.
(completion_tracker::completion_hash_entry): Declare new class.
(completion_tracker::recompute_lowest_common_denominator): Change
function signature.
(completion_tracker::recompute_lcd_visitor): Declare new function.
(completion_tracker::m_entries_vec): Delete.
(completion_tracker::m_entries_hash): Initialize to NULL.
(completion_tracker::m_lowest_common_denominator_valid): New
member variable.
(completion_tracker::m_lowest_common_denominator_max_length): New
member variable.
