type: add c99 variable length array support
The dwarf standard allow certain attributes to be expressed as dwarf expressions rather than constants. For instance upper-/lowerbound attributes. In case of a c99 variable length array the upperbound is a dynamic attribute. With this change c99 vla behave the same as with static arrays. 1| void foo (size_t n) { 2| int ary[n]; 3| memset(ary, 0, sizeof(ary)); 4| } (gdb) print ary $1 = {0 <repeats 42 times>} * dwarf2loc.c (dwarf2_locexpr_baton_eval): New function. (dwarf2_evaluate_property): New function. * dwarf2loc.h (dwarf2_evaluate_property): New function prototype. * dwarf2read.c (attr_to_dynamic_prop): New function. (read_subrange_type): Use attr_to_dynamic_prop to read high bound attribute. * gdbtypes.c: Include dwarf2loc.h. (is_dynamic_type): New function. (resolve_dynamic_type): New function. (resolve_dynamic_bounds): New function. (get_type_length): New function. (check_typedef): Use get_type_length to compute type length. * gdbtypes.h (TYPE_HIGH_BOUND_KIND): New macro. (TYPE_LOW_BOUND_KIND): New macro. (is_dynamic_type): New function prototype. * value.c (value_from_contents_and_address): Call resolve_dynamic_type to resolve dynamic properties of the type. Update comment. * valops.c (get_value_at, value_at, value_at_lazy): Update comment.

* dwarf2read.c (read_subrange_type): Use struct bound_prop for
declaring high/low bounds and change uses accordingly. Call
create_range_type instead of create_static_range_type.
