gdb, solib-svr4: support namespaces in DSO iteration
When looking up names, GDB needs to stay within one linker namespace to find the correct instance in case the same name is provided in more than one namespace. Modify svr4_iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order() to stay within the namespace of the current_objfile argument. If no current_objfile is provided (i.e. it is nullptr), iterate over objfiles in the initial namespace. For objfiles that do not have a corresponding so_list to provide the namespace, assume that the objfile was loaded into the initial namespace. This would cover the main executable objfile (which is indeed loaded into the initial namespace) as well as manually added symbol files. Expected fails: - gdb.base/non-lazy-array-index.exp: the expression parser may lookup global symbols, which may result in xfers to read auxv for determining the debug base as part of svr4_iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order(). - gdb.server/non-lazy-array-index.exp: symbol lookup may access the target to read AUXV in order to determine the debug base for SVR4 linker namespaces. Known issues: - get_symbol_address() and get_msymbol_address() search objfiles for a 'better' match. This was introduced by 4b610737f02 Handle copy relocations to handle copy relocations but it now causes a wrong address to be read after symbol lookup actually cound the correct symbol. This can be seen, for example, with gdb.base/dlmopen.exp when compiled with clang. - gnu ifuncs are only looked up in the initial namespace. - lookup_minimal_symbol() and lookup_minimal_symbol_text() directly iterate over objfiles and are not aware of linker namespaces.
