Support template lookups in strncmp_iw_with_mode
This patch adds support for wild template parameter list matches, similar
to how ABI tags or function overloads are now handled.
With this patch, users will be able to "gloss over" the details of matching
template parameter lists. This is accomplished by adding (yet more) logic
to strncmp_iw_with_mode to skip parameter lists if none is explicitly given
by the user.
Here's a simple example using gdb.linespec/cpls-ops.exp:
Before
------
(gdb) ptype test_op_call
type = struct test_op_call {
public:
void operator()(void);
void operator()(int);
void operator()(long);
void operator()<int>(int *);
}
(gdb) b test_op_call::operator()
Breakpoint 1 at 0x400583: test_op_call::operator(). (3 locations)
(gdb) i b
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE>
1.1 y 0x400583 in test_op_call::operator()(int)
at cpls-ops.cc:43
1.2 y 0x40058e in test_op_call::operator()()
at cpls-ops.cc:47
1.3 y 0x40059e in test_op_call::operator()(long)
at cpls-ops.cc:51
The breakpoint at test_op_call::operator()<int> was never set.
After
-----
(gdb) b test_op_call::operator()
Breakpoint 1 at 0x400583: test_op_call::operator(). (4 locations)
(gdb) i b
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE>
1.1 y 0x400583 in test_op_call::operator()(int)
at cpls-ops.cc:43
1.2 y 0x40058e in test_op_call::operator()()
at cpls-ops.cc:47
1.3 y 0x40059e in test_op_call::operator()(long)
at cpls-ops.cc:51
1.4 y 0x4008d0 in test_op_call::operator()<int>(int*)
at cpls-ops.cc:57
Similar to how scope lookups work, passing "-qualified" to the break command
will cause a literal lookup of the symbol. In the example immediately above,
this will cause GDB to only find the three non-template functions.
