Fix PR gdb/20505 - Make vDSO detection work with core files
Loading a core dump that was either generated on a system running
pristine glibc master, or on a Fedora/RHEL system with LD_DEBUG=unused
set in the environment, solib-svr4.c:svr4_current_sos fails to filter
out the vDSO, resulting in:
(gdb) core-file corefile.core^M
[New LWP 2362]^M
warning: Could not load shared library symbols for linux-vdso.so.1.^M
Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?^M
Core was generated by `build-gdb/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/corefile/'.^M
...
The problem is that gdbarch_vsyscall_range does not support core
inferiors at all.
When live debugging, we're finding the vDSO's start address with
auxv/AT_SYSINFO_EHDR, and then we find the vDSO's size by look for the
corresponding mapping, by parsing /proc/PID/maps. When debugging a
core dump, we can also determine the starting address from
auxv/AT_SYSINFO_EHDR. However, we obviously can't read the core
mappings out of the host's /proc. But we can instead look for a
corresponding load segment in the core's bfd.

* linux-tdep.c (linux_vsyscall_range_raw): For core inferiors,
find the vDSO's start address with AT_SYSINFO_EHDR too, and
determine the vDSO's size by finding the PT_LOAD segment that
matches AT_SYSINFO_EHDR.
