Andrew Burgess 8f3babfaf8 gdb/readline: fix extra 'quit' message problem
After these two commits:

  commit 4fb7bc4b147fd30b781ea2dad533956d0362295a

      readline: back-port changes needed to properly detect EOF

  commit 91395d97d905c31ac38513e4aaedecb3b25e818f
  Date:   Tue Feb 15 17:28:03 2022 +0000

      gdb: handle bracketed-paste-mode and EOF correctly

It was observed that, if a previous command is selected at the
readline prompt using the up arrow key, then when the command is
accepted (by pressing return) an unexpected 'quit' message will be
printed by GDB.  Here's an example session:

  (gdb) p 123
  $1 = 123
  (gdb) p 123
  quit
  $2 = 123
  (gdb)

In this session the second 'p 123' was entered not by typing 'p 123',
but by pressing the up arrow key to select the previous command.  It
is important that the up arrow key is used, typing Ctrl-p will not
trigger the bug.

The problem here appears to be readline's EOF detection when handling
multi-character input sequences.  I have raised this issue on the
readline mailing list here:

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-readline/2022-04/msg00012.html

a solution has been proposed here:

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-readline/2022-04/msg00016.html

This patch includes a test for this issue as well as a back-port of
(the important bits of) readline commit:

  commit 2ef9cec8c48ab1ae3a16b1874a49bd1f58eaaca1
  Date:   Wed May 4 11:18:04 2022 -0400

      fix for setting RL_STATE_EOF in callback mode

That commit also includes some updates to the readline documentation
and tests that I have not included in this commit.

With this commit in place the unexpected 'quit' messages are resolved.

		   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

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