The TUI can't really work properly with new-ui, at least not as
currently written. This patch changes new-ui to reject an attempt.
Attempting to make a DAP ui this way is also now rejected.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 38.

Now that defs.h, server.h and common-defs.h are included via the
`-include` option, it is no longer necessary for source files to include
them. Remove all the inclusions of these files I could find. Update
the generation scripts where relevant.

gdb.interrupt was introduced to implement DAP request cancellation.
However, because it can be run from another thread, and because I
didn't look deeply enough at the implementation, it turns out to be
racy.
The fix here is to lock accesses to certain globals in extension.c.
Note that this won't work in the case where configure detects that the
C++ compiler doesn't provide thread support. This version of the
patch disables DAP entirely in this situation.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 38. I also ran gdb.dap/pause.exp
in a thread-sanitizer build tree to make sure the reported race is
gone.

In dap_gdb_start we do:
...
append GDBFLAGS " -iex \"set debug dap-log-file $logfile\" -q -i=dap"
...
While the dap log file setting comes before the dap interpreter setting,
the order is the other way around:
- first, the dap interpreter is started
- second, the -iex commands are executed and the log file is initialized.
Consequently, there's a race between dap interpreter startup and dap log file
initialization.
This cannot be fixed by using -eiex instead. Before the interpreter is
started, the "set debug dap-log-file" command is not yet registered.
Fix this by postponing the start of the DAP server until GDB has processed all
command files.
Tested on aarch64-linux.

This commit is the result of the following actions:
- Running gdb/copyright.py to update all of the copyright headers to
include 2024,
- Manually updating a few files the copyright.py script told me to
update, these files had copyright headers embedded within the
file,
- Regenerating gdbsupport/Makefile.in to refresh it's copyright
date,
- Using grep to find other files that still mentioned 2023. If
these files were updated last year from 2022 to 2023 then I've
updated them this year to 2024.
I'm sure I've probably missed some dates. Feel free to fix them up as
you spot them.

DAP requires python module typing, which is supported starting python 3.5.
Make this formal by:
- disabling the dap interpreter for python version < 3.5
- returning 0 in allow_dap_tests for python version < 3.5

I'd like to move some things so they become methods on struct ui. But
first, I think that struct ui and the related things are big enough to
deserve their own file, instead of being scattered through top.{c,h} and
event-top.c.

This patch implements a simplication that I suggested here:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-March/186320.html
Currently, the interp::exec virtual method interface is such that
subclass implementations must catch exceptions and then return them
via normal function return.
However, higher up the in chain, for the CLI we get to
interpreter_exec_cmd, which does:
for (i = 1; i < nrules; i++)
{
struct gdb_exception e = interp_exec (interp_to_use, prules[i]);
if (e.reason < 0)
{
interp_set (old_interp, 0);
error (_("error in command: \"%s\"."), prules[i]);
}
}
and for MI we get to mi_cmd_interpreter_exec, which has:
void
mi_cmd_interpreter_exec (const char *command, char **argv, int argc)
{
...
for (i = 1; i < argc; i++)
{
struct gdb_exception e = interp_exec (interp_to_use, argv[i]);
if (e.reason < 0)
error ("%s", e.what ());
}
}
Note that if those errors are reached, we lose the original
exception's error code. I can't see why we'd want that.
And, I can't see why we need to have interp_exec catch the exception
and return it via the normal return path. That's normally needed when
we need to handle propagating exceptions across C code, like across
readline or ncurses, but that's not the case here.
It seems to me that we can simplify things by removing some
try/catch-ing and just letting exceptions propagate normally.
Note, the "error in command" error shown above, which only exists in
the CLI interpreter-exec command, is only ever printed AFAICS if you
run "interpreter-exec console" when the top level interpreter is
already the console/tui. Like:
(gdb) interpreter-exec console "foobar"
Undefined command: "foobar". Try "help".
error in command: "foobar".
You won't see it with MI's "-interpreter-exec console" from a top
level MI interpreter:
(gdb)
-interpreter-exec console "foobar"
&"Undefined command: \"foobar\". Try \"help\".\n"
^error,msg="Undefined command: \"foobar\". Try \"help\"."
(gdb)
nor with MI's "-interpreter-exec mi" from a top level MI interpreter:
(gdb)
-interpreter-exec mi "-foobar"
^error,msg="Undefined MI command: foobar",code="undefined-command"
^done
(gdb)
in both these cases because MI's -interpreter-exec just does:
error ("%s", e.what ());
You won't see it either when running an MI command with the CLI's
"interpreter-exec mi":
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-foobar"
^error,msg="Undefined MI command: foobar",code="undefined-command"
(gdb)
This last case is because MI's interp::exec implementation never
returns an error:
gdb_exception
mi_interp::exec (const char *command)
{
mi_execute_command_wrapper (command);
return gdb_exception ();
}
Thus I think that "error in command" error is pretty pointless, and
since it simplifies things to not have it, the patch just removes it.
The patch also ends up addressing an old FIXME.

PyObject_CallNoArgs was introduced in Python 3.9, so avoid it in favor
of PyObject_CallObject.

The Debugger Adapter Protocol is a JSON-RPC protocol that IDEs can use
to communicate with debuggers. You can find more information here:
https://microsoft.github.io/debug-adapter-protocol/
Frequently this is implemented as a shim, but it seemed to me that GDB
could implement it directly, via the Python API. This patch is the
initial implementation.
DAP is implemented as a new "interp". This is slightly weird, because
it doesn't act like an ordinary interpreter -- for example it doesn't
implement a command syntax, and doesn't use GDB's ordinary event loop.
However, this seemed like the best approach overall.
To run GDB in this mode, use:
gdb -i=dap
The DAP code will accept JSON-RPC messages on stdin and print
responses to stdout. GDB redirects the inferior's stdout to a new
pipe so that output can be encapsulated by the protocol.
The Python code uses multiple threads to do its work. Separate
threads are used for reading JSON from the client and for writing JSON
to the client. All GDB work is done in the main thread. (The first
implementation used asyncio, but this had some limitations, and so I
rewrote it to use threads instead.)
This is not a complete implementation of the protocol, but it does
implement enough to demonstrate that the overall approach works.
There is a rudimentary test suite. It uses a JSON parser written in
pure Tcl. This parser is under the same license as Tcl itself, so I
felt it was acceptable to simply import it into the tree.
There is also a bit of documentation -- just documenting the new
interpreter name.
