[debug] Add -gdescribe-dies
This patch adds option -gdescribe-dies. It sets the DW_AT_description
attribute of dies that do not get a DW_AT_name attribute, to make it easier
to figure out what the die is describing.
The option exports the names of artificial variables:
...
DIE 0: DW_TAG_variable (0x7fa934dd54b0)
+ DW_AT_description: "D.1922"
DW_AT_type: die -> 0 (0x7fa934dd0d70)
DW_AT_artificial: 1
...
which can be traced back to gimple dumps:
...
char a[0:D.1922] [value-expr: *a.0];
...
Furthermore, it adds names to external references:
...
DIE 0: DW_TAG_subprogram (0x7fa88b9650f0)
+DW_AT_description: "main"
DW_AT_abstract_origin: die -> label: vla_1.c.6719312a + 29 (0x7fa88b965140)
...
and likewise to DW_TAG_call_site_parameter DIEs.
Bootstrapped and reg-tested on x86_64.
