gdb/testsuite: add (and use) a new build-id compile option
I noticed that the gdb.debuginfod/fetch_src_and_symbols.exp test was failing when run with Clang as the compiler. This test relies on the compiled binaries having a build-id within them. For GCC, really GNU ld, the default is to always include a build-id. When compiling with Clang though, the default is for no build-id. I did consider *always* turning on the build-id feature when the compiler is Clang, but that felt a little weird. Instead, I propose that we add a new 'build-id' compiler option to gdb_compile, this flag indicates that the test _requires_ a build-id. In gcc_compile we can then add the required flags if the compiler is Clang so that we do get a build-id. With this change the gdb.debuginfod/fetch_src_and_symbols.exp test now (mostly) passes with Clang 9.0.1 and 15.0.2, and still passes with gcc. The 'mostly' part is an unrelated issue, and will be addressed in a later commit in this series. Reviewed-By: Lancelot SIX <lancelot.six@amd.com>
