This patch adds the possibility to pass a qualified=True|False parameter
when creating a breakpoint in Python. It is equivalent to using
-qualified in a linespec. The parameter actually accepts any Python
value, and converts it to boolean using Python's standard rules for
that (https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#truth).
Unlike the -source/-line/-function/-label parameters, it is possible to
use -qualified with a "normal" (non-explicit) linespec. Therefore, it
is possible (unlike these other parameters) to use this new parameter
along with the spec parameter.
I updated the py-breakpoint.exp test. To be able to test multiple
locations using a namespace, I had to switch the test case to compile as
C++. If we really wanted to, we could run it as both C and C++, but
omit the C++-specific parts when running it as C.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* location.h (string_to_event_location): Add match_type
parameter.
* location.c (string_to_event_location): Likewise.
* python/py-breakpoint.c (bppy_init): Handle qualified
parameter.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* python.texi (Manipulating breakpoints using Python): Document
qualified parameter to gdb.Breakpoint.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-breakpoint.c (foo_ns::multiply): New function.
* gdb.python/py-breakpoint.exp: Compile the test case as c++,
call test_bkpt_qualified.
(test_bkpt_qualified): New proc.
This introduces several new keywords to the bppy_init constructor.
The spec parameter is now optional but mutually exclusive to the
explicit keywords source, label, function and line.

This applies the second part of GDB's End of Year Procedure, which
updates the copyright year range in all of GDB's files.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
Two modifications:
1. The addition of 2013 to the copyright year range for every file;
2. The use of a single year range, instead of potentially multiple
year ranges, as approved by the FSF.
