gdb: rename regcache::current_regcache to regcache::regcaches
The name `current_regcache` for the list of currently-existing regcaches sounds wrong. The name is singular, but it holds multiple regcaches, so it could at least be `current_regcaches`. But in other places in GDB, "current" usually means "the object we are working with right now". For example, we swap the "current thread" when we want to operate on a given thread. This is not the case here, this variable just holds all regcaches that exist at any given time, not "the regcache we are working with right now". So, I think calling it `regcaches` is better. I also considered `regcache_list`, but a subsequent patch will make it a map and not a list, so it would sound wrong again. `regcaches` sounds right for any collection of regcache, whatever the type. Rename a few other things that were related to this `current_regcache` field. Note that there is a `get_current_regcache` function, which returns the regcache of the current thread. That one is fine, because it returns the regcache for the current thread. gdb/ChangeLog: * regcache.h (class regcache) <current_regcache>: Rename to... <regcaches>: ... this.
