Simon Marchi 8db5243724 gdb: select "Cygwin" OS ABI for Cygwin binaries
Before this patch, the "Windows" OS ABI is selected for all Windows
executables, including Cygwin ones.  This patch makes GDB differentiate
Cygwin binaries from non-Cygwin ones, and selects the "Cygwin" OS ABI
for the Cygwin ones.

To check whether a Windows PE executable is a Cygwin one, we check the
library list in the .idata section, see if it contains "cygwin1.dll".

I had to add code to parse the .idata section, because BFD doesn't seem
to expose this information.  BFD does parse this information, but only
to print it in textual form (function pe_print_idata):

  https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=blob;f=bfd/peXXigen.c;h=e42d646552a0ca1e856e082256cd3d943b54ddf0;hb=HEAD#l1261

Here's the relevant portion of the PE format documentation:

With this patch applied, this is what I get:

    (gdb) file some_mingw_x86_64_binary.exe
    Reading symbols from some_mingw_x86_64_binary.exe...
    (gdb) show osabi
    The current OS ABI is "auto" (currently "Windows").
    The default OS ABI is "GNU/Linux".

    (gdb) file some_mingw_i386_binary.exe
    Reading symbols from some_mingw_i386_binary.exe...
    (gdb) show osabi
    The current OS ABI is "auto" (currently "Windows").
    The default OS ABI is "GNU/Linux".

    (gdb) file some_cygwin_x86_64_binary.exe
    Reading symbols from some_cygwin_x86_64_binary.exe...
    (gdb) show osabi
    The current OS ABI is "auto" (currently "Cygwin").
    The default OS ABI is "GNU/Linux".

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* windows-tdep.h (is_linked_with_cygwin_dll): New declaration.
	* windows-tdep.c (CYGWIN_DLL_NAME): New.
	(pe_import_directory_entry): New struct type.
	(is_linked_with_cygwin_dll): New function.
	* amd64-windows-tdep.c (amd64_windows_osabi_sniffer): Select
	GDB_OSABI_CYGWIN if the BFD is linked with the Cygwin DLL.
	* i386-windows-tdep.c (i386_windows_osabi_sniffer): Likewise.

		   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
