Move gdbsupport to the top level
This patch moves the gdbsupport directory to the top level. This is the next step in the ongoing project to move gdbserver to the top level. The bulk of this patch was created by "git mv gdb/gdbsupport gdbsupport". This patch then adds a build system to gdbsupport and wires it into the top level. Then it changes gdb to use the top-level build. gdbserver, on the other hand, is not yet changed. It still does its own build of gdbsupport.

+/* byte_vector is a gdb_byte std::vector with a custom allocator that
+ unlike std::vector<gdb_byte> does not zero-initialize new elements
+ by default when the vector is created/resized. This is what you
+ usually want when working with byte buffers, since if you're
+ creating or growing a buffer you'll most surely want to fill it in
+ with data, in which case zero-initialization would be a
+ pessimization. For example:
+
+ gdb::byte_vector buf (some_large_size);
+ fill_with_data (buf.data (), buf.size ());
+
+ On the odd case you do need zero initialization, then you can still
+ call the overloads that specify an explicit value, like:
+
+ gdb::byte_vector buf (some_initial_size, 0);
+ buf.resize (a_bigger_size, 0);
+
+ (Or use std::vector<gdb_byte> instead.)
+
+ Note that unlike std::vector<gdb_byte>, function local
+ gdb::byte_vector objects constructed with an initial size like:
+
+ gdb::byte_vector buf (some_size);
+ fill_with_data (buf.data (), buf.size ());
+
+ usually compile down to the exact same as:
+
+ std::unique_ptr<byte[]> buf (new gdb_byte[some_size]);
+ fill_with_data (buf.get (), some_size);
+
+ with the former having the advantage of being a bit more readable,
+ and providing the whole std::vector API, if you end up needing it.
