Eliminate dwarf2_frame_cache recursion, don't unwind from the dwarf2 sniffer (move dwarf2_tailcall_sniffer_first elsewhere).

Two rationales, same patch.

TL;DR 1:

 dwarf2_frame_cache recursion is evil.  dwarf2_frame_cache calls
 dwarf2_tailcall_sniffer_first which then recurses into
 dwarf2_frame_cache.

TL;DR 2:

 An unwinder trying to unwind is evil.  dwarf2_frame_sniffer calls
 dwarf2_frame_cache which calls dwarf2_tailcall_sniffer_first which
 then tries to unwind the PC of the previous frame.

Avoid all that by deferring dwarf2_tailcall_sniffer_first until it's
really necessary.

Rationale 1
===========

A frame sniffer should not try to unwind, because that bypasses all
the validation checks done by get_prev_frame.  The UNWIND_SAME_ID
scenario is one such case where GDB is currently broken because (in
part) of this (the next patch adds a test that would fail without
this).

GDB goes into an infinite loop in value_fetch_lazy, here:

      while (VALUE_LVAL (new_val) == lval_register && value_lazy (new_val))
	{
	  frame = frame_find_by_id (VALUE_FRAME_ID (new_val));
...
	  new_val = get_frame_register_value (frame, regnum);
	}

GDB is trying to unwind the PC register of the previous frame (frame
#5 above), starting from the frame being sniffed (the THIS frame).
But the THIS frame's unwinder says the PC of the previous frame is
actually the same as the previous's frame's next frame (which is the
same frame we started with, the THIS frame), therefore it returns an
lval_register lazy value with frame set to THIS frame.  And so the
value_fetch_lazy loop never ends.


Rationale 2
===========

As an experiment, I tried making dwarf2-frame.c:read_addr_from_reg use
address_from_register.  That caused a bunch of regressions, but it
actually took me a long while to figure out what was going on.  Turns
out dwarf2-frame.c:read_addr_from_reg is called while computing the
frame's CFA, from within dwarf2_frame_cache.  address_from_register
wants to create a register with frame_id set to the frame being
constructed.  To create the frame id, we again call dwarf2_frame_cache,
which given:

static struct dwarf2_frame_cache *
dwarf2_frame_cache (struct frame_info *this_frame, void **this_cache)
{
...
  if (*this_cache)
    return *this_cache;

returns an incomplete object to the caller:
static void
dwarf2_frame_this_id (struct frame_info *this_frame, void **this_cache,
		      struct frame_id *this_id)
{
  struct dwarf2_frame_cache *cache =
    dwarf2_frame_cache (this_frame, this_cache);
...
 (*this_id) = frame_id_build (cache->cfa, get_frame_func (this_frame));
}

As cache->cfa is still 0 (we were trying to compute it!), and
get_frame_id recalls this id from here on, we end up with a broken
frame id in recorded for this frame.  Later, when inspecting locals,
the dwarf machinery needs to know the selected frame's base, which
calls get_frame_base:

CORE_ADDR
get_frame_base (struct frame_info *fi)
{
  return get_frame_id (fi).stack_addr;
}

which as seen above then returns 0 ...

So I gave up using address_from_register.

But, the pain of investigating this made me want to have GDB itself
assert that recursion never happens here.  So I wrote a patch to do
that.  But, it triggers on current mainline, because
dwarf2_tailcall_sniffer_first, called from dwarf2_frame_cache, unwinds
the this_frame.

A sniffer shouldn't be trying to unwind, exactly because of this sort
of tricky issue.  The patch defers calling
dwarf2_tailcall_sniffer_first until it's really necessary, in
dwarf2_frame_prev_register (thus actually outside the sniffer path).
As this makes the call to dwarf2_frame_sniffer in dwarf2_frame_cache
unnecessary again, the patch removes that too.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.
