Andrew Burgess 66984afd29 gdb: include the base address in in-memory bfd filenames
The struct target_buffer (in gdb_bfd.c) is used to hold information
about an in-memory BFD object created by GDB.  For now this mechanism
is used by GDB when loading information about JIT symfiles.

This commit updates target_buffer (in gdb_bfd.c) to be more C++ like,
and, at the same time, adds the base address of the symfile into the
BFD filename.

Right now, every in-memory BFD is given the filename "<in-memory>".
This filename is visible in things like 'maint info symtabs' and
'maint info line-table'.  If there are multiple in-memory BFD objects
then it can be hard to match keep track if which BFD is which.  This
commit changes the name to be "<in-memory@ADDRESS>" where ADDRESS is
replaced with the base address for where the in-memory symbol file was
read from.

As an example of how this is useful, here's the output of 'maint info
jit' showing a single loaded JIT symfile:

  (gdb) maintenance info jit
  jit_code_entry address symfile address    symfile size
  0x00000000004056b0     0x0000000007000000 17320

And here's part of the output from 'maint info symtabs':

  (gdb) maintenance info symtabs
  ...snip...
  { objfile <in-memory@0x7000000> ((struct objfile *) 0x5258250)
    { ((struct compunit_symtab *) 0x4f0afb0)
      debugformat DWARF 4
      producer GNU C17 9.3.1 20200408 (Red Hat 9.3.1-2) -mtune=generic -march=x86-64 -g -fno-stack-protector -fpic
      name jit-elf-solib.c
      dirname /tmp/binutils-gdb/build/gdb/testsuite
      blockvector ((struct blockvector *) 0x5477850)
      user ((struct compunit_symtab *) (null))
  	{ symtab /tmp/binutils-gdb/build/gdb/testsuite/../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/jit-elf-solib.c ((struct symtab *) 0x4f0b030)
  	  fullname (null)
  	  linetable ((struct linetable *) 0x5477880)
  	}
    }
  }

I've added a new test that checks the new in-memory file names are
generated correctly, and also checks that the in-memory JIT files can
be dumped back out using 'dump binary memory'.

		   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.
