Refactor and expose core-dumping functionality
This commit exposes the functions that dump core outside utils.c. can_dump_core gains a new parameter, "limit_kind", to allow either the soft or hard limit to be checked, and its printing has separated into the new function warn_cant_dump_core. The new function can_dump_core_warn does what can_dump_core previously did (print and warn). gdb/ 2014-06-19 Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com> * utils.h (resource_limit_kind): New enum. (can_dump_core): New declaration. (warn_cant_dump_core): Likewise. (dump_core): Likewise. * utils.c (dump_core): Made nonstatic. Added new parameter "limit_kind". (can_dump_core): Made nonstatic. Moved printing code to... (warn_cant_dump_core): New function. (can_dump_core_warn): Likewise. (internal_vproblem): Replace calls to can_dump_core with calls to can_dump_core_warn. Supply new argument to each.
