Handle bit offset and bit size in base types
PR symtab/25470 points out that the Zig programming language allows integers of various bit sizes (including zero), not just sizes that are a multiple of 8. This is supported in DWARF by applying both a byte size and a DW_AT_bit_size. This patch adds support for this feature to integer and boolean types. Other base types are not handled -- for floating-point types, this didn't seem to make sense, and for character types I didn't see much need. (These can be added later if desired.) I've also added support for DW_AT_data_bit_offset at the same time. I don't know whether the Zig compiler requires this, but it was described in the same section in the DWARF standard and was easy to add. A new test case is supplied, using the DWARF assembler. gdb/ChangeLog 2020-09-23 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> PR symtab/25470: * value.c (unpack_long, pack_long, pack_unsigned_long): Handle bit offset and bit size. * printcmd.c (print_scalar_formatted): Handle zero-length integer.
