libctf, include, binutils, gdb, ld: rename ctf_file_t to ctf_dict_t
The naming of the ctf_file_t type in libctf is a historical curiosity. Back in the Solaris days, CTF dictionaries were originally generated as a separate file and then (sometimes) merged into objects: hence the datatype was named ctf_file_t, and known as a "CTF file". Nowadays, raw CTF is essentially never written to a file on its own, and the datatype changed name to a "CTF dictionary" years ago. So the term "CTF file" refers to something that is never a file! This is at best confusing. The type has also historically been known as a 'CTF container", which is even more confusing now that we have CTF archives which are *also* a sort of container (they contain CTF dictionaries), but which are never referred to as containers in the source code. So fix this by completing the renaming, renaming ctf_file_t to ctf_dict_t throughout, and renaming those few functions that refer to CTF files by name (keeping compatibility aliases) to refer to dicts instead. Old users who still refer to ctf_file_t will see (harmless) pointer-compatibility warnings at compile time, but the ABI is unchanged (since C doesn't mangle names, and ctf_file_t was always an opaque type) and things will still compile fine as long as -Werror is not specified. All references to CTF containers and CTF files in the source code are fixed to refer to CTF dicts instead. Further (smaller) renamings of annoyingly-named functions to come, as part of the process of souping up queries across whole archives at once (needed for the function info and data object sections). binutils/ChangeLog 2020-11-20 Nick Alcock <nick.alcock@oracle.com> * objdump.c (dump_ctf_errs): Rename ctf_file_t to ctf_dict_t.
