[gdb/symtab] Prefer def over decl (inter-CU case)
When running test-case gdb.threads/tls.exp with target board -readnow, we have: ... (gdb) print a_thread_local^M Cannot find thread-local storage for process 0, executable file tls/tls:^M Cannot find thread-local variables on this target^M (gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/tls.exp: print a_thread_local ... while with native we have: ... (gdb) print a_thread_local^M Cannot read `a_thread_local' without registers^M (gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/tls.exp: print a_thread_local ... The difference in behaviour can be explained as follows. Without -readnow, we have two a_thread_locals, the def and the decl, each in a different CU: ... $ gdb -batch outputs/gdb.threads/tls/tls \ -ex "maint expand-symtabs" \ -ex "print a_thread_local" \ -ex "maint print symbols" \ | grep "a_thread_local;" Cannot read `a_thread_local' without registers int a_thread_local; computed at runtime int a_thread_local; unresolved ... and with -readnow, we have the opposite order: ... $ gdb -readnow -batch outputs/gdb.threads/tls/tls \ -ex "maint expand-symtabs" \ -ex "print a_thread_local" \ -ex "maint print symbols" \ | grep "a_thread_local;" Cannot find thread-local storage for process 0, executable file tls/tls: Cannot find thread-local variables on this target int a_thread_local; unresolved int a_thread_local; computed at runtime ... Fix the FAIL by preferring the def over the decl (something we already do intra-CU since the fix for PR24971, commit 93e55f0a03 "[gdb/symtab] Prefer var def over decl").
