Refactor expression completion
This refactors the gdb expression completion code to make it easier to add more types of completers. In the old approach, just two kinds of completers were supported: field names for some sub-expression, or tag names (like "enum something"). The data for each kind was combined in single structure, "expr_completion_state", and handled explicitly by complete_expression. In the new approach, the parser state just holds an object that is responsible for implementing completion. This way, new completion types can be added by subclassing this base object. The structop completer is moved into structop_base_operation, and new objects are defined for use by the completion code. This moves much of the logic of expression completion out of completer.c as well.
