gdb: refactor the non-printing disassemblers
This commit started from an observation I made while working on some other disassembler patches, that is, that the function gdb_buffered_insn_length, is broken ... sort of. I noticed that the gdb_buffered_insn_length function doesn't set up the application data field if the disassemble_info structure. Further, I noticed that some architectures, for example, ARM, require that the application_data field be set, see gdb_print_insn_arm in arm-tdep.c. And so, if we ever use gdb_buffered_insn_length for ARM, then GDB will likely crash. Which is why I said only "sort of" broken. Right now we don't use gdb_buffered_insn_length with ARM, so maybe it isn't broken yet? Anyway to prove to myself that there was a problem here I extended the disassembler self tests in disasm-selftests.c to include a test of gdb_buffered_insn_length. As I run the test for all architectures, I do indeed see GDB crash for ARM. To fix this we need gdb_buffered_insn_length to create a disassembler that inherits from gdb_disassemble_info, but we also need this new disassembler to not print anything. And so, I introduce a new gdb_non_printing_disassembler class, this is a disassembler that doesn't print anything to the output stream. I then observed that both ARC and S12Z also create non-printing disassemblers, but these are slightly different. While the disassembler in gdb_non_printing_disassembler reads the instruction from a buffer, the ARC and S12Z disassemblers read from target memory using target_read_code. And so, I further split gdb_non_printing_disassembler into two sub-classes, gdb_non_printing_memory_disassembler and gdb_non_printing_buffer_disassembler. The new selftests now pass, but otherwise, there should be no user visible changes after this commit.
