[gdb] Handle bad alloc handling in gdb_bfd_open
Say we simulate a bad alloc in gdb_bfd_init_data:
...
+ {
+ static bool throw_bad_alloc = true;
+ if (throw_bad_alloc)
+ {
+ throw_bad_alloc = false;
+
+ va_list dummy;
+ throw gdb_quit_bad_alloc (gdb_exception_quit ("bad alloc", dummy));
+ }
+ }
gdata = new gdb_bfd_data (abfd, st);
...
That works out fine for doing "file a.out" once:
...
$ gdb -q -batch -ex "file a.out"
bad alloc
$
...
but doing so twice get us:
...
$ gdb -q -batch -ex "file a.out" -ex "file a.out"
bad alloc

The problem is in gdb_bfd_open, where we insert abfd into gdb_bfd_cache:
...
if (bfd_sharing)
{
slot = htab_find_slot_with_hash (gdb_bfd_cache, &search, hash, INSERT);
gdb_assert (!*slot);
*slot = abfd;
}
gdb_bfd_init_data (abfd, &st);
...
while the bad alloc means that gdb_bfd_init_data is interrupted and abfd is
not properly initialized.
Fix this by reversing the order, inserting abfd into gdb_bfd_cache only after
a successful call to gdb_bfd_init_data, such that we get:
...
$ gdb -q -batch -ex "file a.out" -ex "file a.out"
bad alloc
$
...
Tested on aarch64-linux.
