python: Add qualified parameter to gdb.Breakpoint
This patch adds the possibility to pass a qualified=True|False parameter when creating a breakpoint in Python. It is equivalent to using -qualified in a linespec. The parameter actually accepts any Python value, and converts it to boolean using Python's standard rules for that (https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#truth). Unlike the -source/-line/-function/-label parameters, it is possible to use -qualified with a "normal" (non-explicit) linespec. Therefore, it is possible (unlike these other parameters) to use this new parameter along with the spec parameter. I updated the py-breakpoint.exp test. To be able to test multiple locations using a namespace, I had to switch the test case to compile as C++. If we really wanted to, we could run it as both C and C++, but omit the C++-specific parts when running it as C. gdb/ChangeLog: * location.h (string_to_event_location): Add match_type parameter. * location.c (string_to_event_location): Likewise. * python/py-breakpoint.c (bppy_init): Handle qualified parameter. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * python.texi (Manipulating breakpoints using Python): Document qualified parameter to gdb.Breakpoint. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.python/py-breakpoint.c (foo_ns::multiply): New function. * gdb.python/py-breakpoint.exp: Compile the test case as c++, call test_bkpt_qualified. (test_bkpt_qualified): New proc.
