gdb: add value::allocate_register
Add value::allocate_register, to facilitate allocating a value representing a register in a given frame (or rather, in the given frame's previous frame). It will be used in a subsequent patch. I changed one relatively obvious spot that could use it, to at least exercise the code path. Change-Id: Icd4960f5e471a74b657bb3596c88d89679ef3772 Reviewed-By: John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org>
