Simon Marchi 32ef30002c dwarf: Read register number as unsigned in DW_CFA_def_cfa*
When displaying the .debug_frame section, the register numbers in the
DW_CFA_def_cfa* statements are read as signed numbers.  I have come
across a target that has register 121, encoded as 0x79 in unsigned LEB128.
Interpreting this as signed results in -7, which makes readelf display
"r-7".

The DWARF5 standard (6.4.2.2) states that the register numbers should be
treated as unsigned LEB128.

Simply replacing READ_SLEB with READ_ULEB resulted in warnings like
these:

/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/binutils/dwarf.c: In function ‘display_debug_frames’:
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/binutils/dwarf.c:355:17: error: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Werror=sign-compare]
       if ((var) != _val)     \
                 ^
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/binutils/dwarf.c:7866:8: note: in expansion of macro ‘READ_ULEB’
        READ_ULEB (fc->cfa_reg);
        ^
... so I also changed Frame_Chunk::cfa_reg to an unsigned int.

binutils/ChangeLog:

	* dwarf.c (struct Frame_Chunk) <cfa_reg>: Change type to
	unsigned int.
	(display_debug_frames): Read CFA reg as an unsigned number.

		   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.
