Add support for exception handling with multiple versions of
the Ada runtime: * ada-lang.c: Update general comments on how Ada exception catchpoints are implemented. (raise_sym_name, raise_unhandled_sym_name, raise_assert_sym_name) (__gnat_raise_nodefer_with_msg): Delete. (ada_unhandled_exception_name_addr_ftype): New type. (exception_support_info): New type. (ada_unhandled_exception_name_addr): Add forward declaration. (ada_unhandled_exception_name_addr_from_raise): Likewise. (default_exception_support_info): New constant. (exception_support_info_fallback): Likewise. (exception_info): New global variable. (ada_exception_support_info_sniffer): New function. (ada_executable_changed_observer): Likewise. (ada_unhandled_exception_name_addr_from_raise): Renamed from ada_unhandled_exception_name_addr. (ada_unhandled_exception_name_addr): Reimplement to match the latest Ada runtime implementation. (error_breakpoint_runtime_sym_not_found): Delete. (ada_exception_sym_name): Get the exception sym name from exception_info rather than hardcoding it. (ada_exception_sal): Add call to ada_exception_support_info_sniffer. Update error handling. * Makefile.in (ada-lang.o): Add dependency on observer.h.
