Pedro Alves c7a3851716 Fix racy output matching in gdb.base/completion.exp
Testing with:
 $ make check-read1 TESTS="gdb.base/completion.exp"

Exposes a testcase bug that can result in racy fails:

  FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: command-name completion limiting using tab character
  ERROR: Undefined command "".
  FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: symbol-name completion limiting using tab character
  FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: symbol-name completion limiting using complete command

testsuite/gdb.log shows:

  (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/completion.exp: set max-completions 5
  p^G
  passcount     path          print         print-object  printf
  *** List may be truncated, max-completions reached. ***
  (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: command-name completion limiting using tab character
  pcomplete p
  Undefined command: "pcomplete".  Try "help".
  (gdb) ERROR: Undefined command "".

The problem is that the expect buffer can get filled with partial
output that ends in the gdb prompt, and so the default FAIL inside
gdb_test_multiple matches.

Fix that by splitting the gdb_test_multiple in two stages.  Since that
is done in more than one place in the testcase, move the otherwise
duplicate code to helper procedures.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2017-11-09  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	* gdb.base/completion.exp (ignore_and_resync, test_tab_complete):
	New procedures, factored out from ...
	(top level): ... here, and adjusted to avoid expecting beyond the
	prompt in one go.

		   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.
