GDB: Add support for the new set/show disassembler-options commands.
This commit adds support to GDB so that it can modify the disassembler-options value that is passed to the disassembler, similar to objdump's -M option. Currently, the only supported targets are ARM, PowerPC and S/390, but adding support for a new target(s) is not difficult. include/ * dis-asm.h (disasm_options_t): New typedef. (parse_arm_disassembler_option): Remove prototype. (set_arm_regname_option): Likewise. (get_arm_regnames): Likewise. (get_arm_regname_num_options): Likewise. (disassemble_init_s390): New prototype.
