This commit allows a user to enable or disable dwarf support at compilation time. To do that, a new configure option is introduced, in the form of --enable-gdb-dwarf-support (and the accompanying --disable version). By default, dwarf support is enabled, so no behavior changes occur if a user doesn't use the new feature. If support is disabled, no .c files inside the dwarf2/ subfolder will be compiled into the final binary. To achieve this, this commit also introduces the new macro DWARF_FORMAT_AVAILABLE, which guards the definitions of functions exported from the dwarf reader. If the macro is not defined, there are a couple behaviors that exported functions may have: * no-ops: several functions are used to register things at initialization time, like unwinders. These are turned into no-ops because the user hasn't attempted to read DWARF yet, there's no point in warning that DWARF is unavailable. * warnings: similar to the previous commit, if dwarf would be read or used, the funciton will emit the warning "No dwarf support available." * throw exceptions: If the code that calls a function expects an exceptin in case of errors, and has a try-catch block, an error with the previous message is thrown. I believe that the changed functions should probalby be moved to the dwarf2/public.h header, but that require a much larger refactor, so it is left as a future improvement. Finally, the --enable-gdb-compile configure option has been slightly changed, since compile requires dwarf support. If compile was requested and dwarf was disabled, configure will throw an error. If the option was not used, support will follow what was requested for dwarf (warning the user of what is decided).
