Fix alias command not detecting non matching prefix & sometimes asserting.
alias_command does not detect that the prefixes of the alias command and the aliased command are not matching: it is comparing the alias prefix with itself, instead of comparing it with the aliased command prefix. This causes either the alias command to silently do nothing, or to have GDB asserting: (gdb) alias assigne imprime limite-elements = set print elements ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/cli/cli-cmds.c:1552: internal-error: void alias_command(const char*, int): Assertion `c_command != NULL && c_command != (struct cmd_list_element *) -1' failed. A problem internal to GDB has been detected, Fix the logic, and update gdb.base/alias.exp to test these cases. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-06-25 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * cli/cli-cmds.c (alias_command): Compare the alias prefix with the command prefix. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2019-06-25 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * gdb.base/alias.exp: Test non matching/non existing prefixes.
