Work around binutils/15021.
* dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_per_cu_data): Split imported_symtabs and
type_unit_group out of union s. All uses updated.
(read_index_from_section): Watch for index version 8.
(follow_die_sig): If using .gdb_index version <= 7, record the TU as
an imported symtab.
(write_psymtabs_to_index): Increment version number to 8.
doc/
