Implement function call operations
This implement function call operations. The current function call code relies on some very lengthy code (evaluate_funcall is 398 lines...) to distinguish between the different opcodes that might appear in the callee position. Rather than try to replicate this, and have a function that tried to dissect many different kinds of operation subclass, this patch instead puts the work into the callee. A new operation::evaluate_funcall method is added, and then this is overridden in the classes that require special treatment. gdb/ChangeLog 2021-03-08 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * expression.h (class operation) <evaluate_funcall>: New methods. * expop.h (class scope_operation) <evaluate_funcall>: New method. (class var_value_operation) <evaluate_funcall>: New method. (class structop_base_operation) <evaluate_funcall>: New method. (class var_msym_value_operation) <evaluate_funcall>: New method. (class structop_member_base): New class. (class structop_member_operation): Derive from structop_member_base. (class structop_mptr_operation): Derive from structop_member_base. (class funcall_operation): New class. * eval.c (operation::evaluate_funcall) (var_value_operation::evaluate_funcall) (scope_operation::evaluate_funcall) (structop_member_base::evaluate_funcall) (structop_base_operation::evaluate_funcall): New methods.
