Introduce gdb-specific %p format suffixes
This introduces a few gdb-specific %p format suffixes. This is useful for emitting gdb-specific output in an ergonomic way. It also yields code that is more i18n-friendly. The comment before ui_out::message explains the details. Note that the tests had to change a little. When using one of the gdb printf functions with styling, there can be spurious style changes emitted to the output. This did not seem worthwhile to fix, as the low-level output functions are rather spaghetti-ish already, and I didn't want to make them even worse. This change also necessitated adding support for "*" as precision and width in format_pieces. These are used in various spots in gdb, and it seemed better to me to implement them than to remove the uses. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-10-01 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * unittests/format_pieces-selftests.c: Add gdb_format parameter.

+ /* Output a printf-style formatted string. In addition to the usual

+ formatters:
+
+ - '%pF' - output a field.
+
+ The argument is a field, wrapped in any of the base_field_s
+ subclasses. signed_field for integer fields, string_field for
+ string fields. This is preferred over separate
+ uiout->field_signed(), uiout_>field_string() etc. calls when
+ the formatted message is translatable. E.g.:
+
+ uiout->message (_("\nWatchpoint %pF deleted because the program has "
+ "left the block in\n"
+ "which its expression is valid.\n"),
+ signed_field ("wpnum", b->number));
+
+ - '%p[' - output the following text in a specified style.
+ '%p]' - output the following text in the default style.
+
+ The argument to '%p[' is a ui_file_style pointer. The argument
+ to '%p]' must be nullptr.
+
+ This is useful when you want to output some portion of a string
+ literal in some style. E.g.:
+
+ uiout->message (_(" %p[<repeats %u times>%p]"),
+ metadata_style.style ().ptr (),
+ reps, repeats, nullptr);
+
+ - '%ps' - output a styled string.
+
+ The argument is the result of a call to styled_string. This is
+ useful when you want to output some runtime-generated string in
+ some style. E.g.:
+
+ uiout->message (_("this is a target address %ps.\n"),
+ styled_string (address_style.style (),
+ paddress (gdbarch, pc)));
+
+ Note that these all "abuse" the %p printf format spec, in order
+ to be compatible with GCC's printf format checking. This is OK
+ because code in GDB that wants to print a host address should use
+ host_address_to_string instead of %p. */
