infcall, c++: allow more info to be computed for pass-by-reference values
In C++, call-by-value arguments that cannot be trivially copied are
implicitly passed by reference. When making an infcall, GDB needs to
find out if an argument is pass-by-reference or not, so that the
correct semantics can be followed. This patch enriches the
information computed by the language ops for pass-by-reference
arguments. Instead of a plain binary result, the computed information
now includes whether the argument is
- copy constructible
- destructible
- trivially copyable
- trivially copy constructible
- trivially destructible
This information is stored in a struct named 'language_pass_by_ref_info'.
This patch paves the way for GDB's infcall mechanism to call the copy
ctor and the destructor of a pass-by-ref argument appropriately.
gdb/ChangeLog:
