Tom de Vries 2c71f639a0 [gdb/ada] Handle artificial local symbols
With current master and gcc 7.5.0/8.5.0, we have this timeout:
...
(gdb) print s^M
Multiple matches for s^M
[0] cancel^M
[1] s at src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.ada/interface/foo.adb:20^M
[2] s at src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.ada/interface/foo.adb:?^M
> FAIL: gdb.ada/interface.exp: print s (timeout)
...

[ The FAIL doesn't reproduce with gcc 9.3.1.  This difference in
behaviour bisects to gcc commit d70ba0c10de.

The FAIL with earlier gcc bisects to gdb commit ba8694b650b. ]

The FAIL is caused by gcc generating this debug info describing a named
artificial variable:
...
 <2><1204>: Abbrev Number: 31 (DW_TAG_variable)
    <1205>   DW_AT_name        : s.14
    <1209>   DW_AT_type        : <0x1213>
    <120d>   DW_AT_artificial  : 1
    <120d>   DW_AT_location    : 5 byte block: 91 e0 7d 23 18   \
      (DW_OP_fbreg: -288; DW_OP_plus_uconst: 24)
...

An easy way to fix this would be to simply not put named artificial variables
into the symbol table.  However, that causes regressions for Ada.  It relies
on being able to get the value from such variables, using a named reference.

Fix this instead by marking the symbol as artificial, and:
- ignoring such symbols in ada_resolve_variable, which fixes the FAIL
- ignoring such ada symbols in do_print_variable_and_value, which prevents
  them from showing up in "info locals"

Note that a fix for the latter was submitted here (
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2008-January/054994.html ), and
this patch borrows from it.

Tested on x86_64-linux.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
