Lancelot SIX 32d8e07ea7 gdb: Only paginate for filtered output in fputs_maybe_filtered
A have had situation where a unfiltered output (done using
fputs_unfiltered) ended up triggering pagination.  The backtrace for this was:

    ...
    #24 0x000055839377ee4e in check_async_event_handlers () at ../../gdb/async-event.c:335
    #25 0x0000558394b67b57 in gdb_do_one_event () at ../../gdbsupport/event-loop.cc:216
    #26 0x0000558394587454 in gdb_readline_wrapper (prompt=0x7ffd907712d0 "--Type <RET> for more, q to quit, c to continue without paging--") at ../../gdb/top.c:1148
    #27 0x0000558394707270 in prompt_for_continue () at ../../gdb/utils.c:1438
    #28 0x00005583947088b3 in fputs_maybe_filtered (linebuffer=0x60c0000f4000 "   [...quite big message...]", stream=0x60300028e9d0, filter=0) at ../../gdb/utils.c:1752
    #29 0x0000558394708e57 in fputs_unfiltered (linebuffer=0x60c0000f4000 "   [...quite big message...]", stream=0x60300028e9d0) at ../../gdb/utils.c:1811
    ...

This comes from what appears to be a oversight in fputs_maybe_filtered.  This
function has a FILTER parameter which if true makes the function pause after
every screenful (i.e. triggers pagination).

The filter parameter is correctly used to guard the first place where
prompt_for_continue.  There is a second place in the function which can call
prompt_for_continue, but is currently unguarded.  I believe that this is an
oversight, this patch fixes that.

Tested on Linux-x86_64, no regression observed.

		   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
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

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