Use unique_xmalloc_ptr for read_string
This changes read_string's "buffer" out-parameter to be a unique_xmalloc_ptr, then updates the users. This allows for the removal of some cleanups. I chose unique_xmalloc_ptr rather than byte_vector here due to the way Guile unwinding seems to work. Tested by the buildbot. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-06-18 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * valprint.h (read_string): Update. * valprint.c (read_string): Change type of "buffer". (val_print_string): Update. * python/py-value.c (valpy_string): Update. * language.h (struct language_defn) <la_get_string>: Change type of "buffer". (default_get_string, c_get_string): Update. * language.c (default_get_string): Change type of "buffer". * guile/scm-value.c (gdbscm_value_to_string): Update. * c-lang.c (c_get_string): Change type of "buffer".
