Teach GDB that wchar_t is a built-in type in C++ mode

GDB is currently not aware that wchar_t is a built-in type in C++
mode.  This is usually not a problem because the debug info describes
the type, so when you have a program loaded, you don't notice this.
However, if you try expressions involving wchar_t before a program is
loaded, gdb errors out:

 (gdb) p (wchar_t)-1
 No symbol table is loaded.  Use the "file" command.
 (gdb) p L"hello"
 No type named wchar_t.
 (gdb) ptype L"hello"
 No type named wchar_t.

This commit teaches gdb about the type.  After:

 (gdb) p (wchar_t)-1
 $1 = -1 L'\xffffffff'
 (gdb) p L"hello"
 $2 = L"hello"
 (gdb) ptype L"hello"
 type = wchar_t [6]

Unlike char16_t/char32_t, unfortunately, the underlying type of
wchar_t is implementation dependent, both size and signness.  So this
requires adding a couple new gdbarch hooks.

I grepped the GCC code base for WCHAR_TYPE and WCHAR_TYPE_SIZE, and it
seems to me that the majority of the ABIs have a 4-byte signed
wchar_t, so that's what I made the default for GDB too.  And then I
looked for which ports have a 16-bit and/or unsigned wchar_t, and made
GDB follow suit.
