This updates the copyright headers to include 2025. I did this by
running gdb/copyright.py and then manually modifying a few files as
noted by the script.

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.

This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script,
which automated the update of the copyright year range for all
source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.

Varobj object contains references to types, variables (i.e. struct
variable) and expression. All of those can reference data on an
objfile's obstack. It is possible for this objfile to be deleted (and
the obstack to be feed), while the varobj remains valid. Later, if the
user uses the varobj, this will result in a use-after-free error. With
address sanitizer build, this leads to a plain error. For non address
sanitizer build we might see undefined behaviour, which manifest
themself as assertion failures when accessing data backed by feed
memory.
This can be observed if we create a varobj that refers to ta symbol in a
shared library, after either the objfile gets reloaded (using the `file`
command) or after the shared library is unloaded (with a call to dlclose
for example).
This patch fixes those issues by:
- Adding cleanup procedure to the free_objfile observable. When
activated this observer clears expressions referencing the objfile
being freed, and removes references to blocks belonging to this
objfile.
- Adding varobj support in the `preserve_values` (gdb.value.c). This
ensures that before the objfile is unloaded, any type owned by the
objfile referenced by the varobj is replaced by an equivalent type
not owned by the objfile. This process is done here instead of in the
free_objfile observer in order to reuse the type hash table already
used for similar purpose when replacing types of values kept in the
value history.
This patch also makes sure to keep a reference to the expression's
gdbarch and language_defn members when the varobj->root->exp is
initialized. Those structures outlive the objfile, so this is safe.
This is done because those references might be used initialize a python
context even after exp is invalidated. Another approach could have been
to initialize the python context with default gdbarch and language_defn
(i.e. nullptr) if expr is NULL, but since we might still try to display
the value which was obtained by evaluating exp when it was still valid,
keeping track of the context which was used at this time seems
reasonable.
Tested on x86_64-Linux.
