Translate PyExc_KeyboardInterrupt to gdb "quit"
A while back I typed "info pretty-printers" with a large number of printers installed, and I typed "q" to stop the pagination. I noticed that gdb printed a Python exception in this case. It seems to me that, instead, quitting pagination (or control-c'ing a Python command generally) should be handled the same way that gdb normally handles a quit. This patch implements this idea by changing gdbpy_handle_exception to treat PyExc_KeyboardInterrupt specially. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-12-27 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * python/py-utils.c (gdbpy_handle_exception): Translate PyExc_KeyboardInterrupt to quit. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2018-12-27 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdb.python/py-cmd.exp (test_python_inline_or_multiline): Add pagination test.
