Add "set print finish"
A user wanted to be able to disable the display of the value when using "finish" -- but still have the value entered into the value history in case it was useful later on. Part of the rationale here is that sometimes the value might be quite large, or expensive to display (in their case this was compounded by a rogue pretty-printer). This patch implements this idea. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-05-29 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> * NEWS: Add entry. * infcmd.c (print_return_value_1): Handle finish_print option.
