Teach -data-list-register-values to not include unavailable registers
This patch adds an option --skip-unavailable to MI command -data-list-register-values, so that unavailable registers are not displayed (on the context of traceframes). The old -data-list-register-values command behaves like -data-list-register-values x 0 8 ^done,register-values=[{number="0",value="<unavailable>"},{number="8",value="0x80483de"}] With this patch, an option --skip-unavailable is added, -data-list-register-values --skip-unavailable x 0 8 ^done,register-values=[{number="8",value="0x80483de"}] gdb: 2013-06-20 Pedro Alves <pedro@codesourcery.com> Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com> * NEWS: Mention the new option '--skip-unavailable' of command -data-list-register-values. * mi/mi-main.c (mi_cmd_data_list_register_values): Accept the --skip-unavailable option.
