Automatically add types to Python modules
PR python/32163 points out that various types provided by gdb are not added to the gdb module, so they aren't available for interactive inspection. I think this is just an oversight. This patch fixes the problem by introducing a new helper function that both readies the type and then adds it to the appropriate module. The patch also poisons PyType_Ready, the idea being to avoid this bug in the future. v2: * Fixed a bug in original patch in gdb.Architecture registration * Added regression test for the types mentioned in the bug Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32163 Reviewed-By: Alexandra Petlanova Hajkova <ahajkova@redhat.com>
