dwarf: Make sect_offset 64-bits
Does anybody have an opinion about this? It would be nice to unbreak
the "default" build with clang (i.e. without passing special -Wno-error=
flags).
Here's a version rebased on today's master.

Subject: [PATCH] dwarf: Make sect_offset 64-bits
Compiling with Clang 6 shows these errors:
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2read.c:26610:43: error: result of comparison of constant 4294967296 with expression of type 'typename std::underlying_type<sect_offset>::type' (a
ka 'unsigned int') is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
if (to_underlying (per_cu.sect_off) >= (static_cast<uint64_t> (1) << 32))

/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2read.c:26618:43: error: result of comparison of constant 4294967296 with expression of type 'typename std::underlying_type<sect_offset>::type' (a

if (to_underlying (per_cu.sect_off) >= (static_cast<uint64_t> (1) << 32))
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The code in question checks if there is any offset exceeding 32 bits,
and therefore if we need to use the 64-bit DWARF format when writing the
.debug_names section. The type we use currently to represent section
offsets is an unsigned int (32-bits), which means a value of this type
will never exceed 32 bits, hence the errors above.
There are many signs that we want to support 64-bits DWARF (although I
haven't tested), such as:
- We correctly read initial length fields (read_initial_length)
- We take that into account when reading offsets (read_offset_1)
- The check_dwarf64_offsets function
However, I don't see how it can work if sect_offset is a 32-bits type.
Every time we record a section offset, we risk truncating the value.
And if a file uses the 64-bit DWARF format, it's most likely because
there are such offset values that overflow 32 bits.
Because of this, I think the way forward is to change sect_offset to be
a uint64_t. It will be able to represent any offset, regardless of the
bitness of the DWARF info.
This patch was regtested on the buildbot.
