The object_p (and archive_p, core_file_p) functions are not supposed
to have any target specific malloc'd memory attached to the bfd on
their return. This should be obvious on a failure return, but it's
also true for a successful return. The reason is that even though the
object_p recognises the file, that particular target may not be used
and thus the bfd won't be closed calling close_and_cleanup for the
target that allocated the memory.
It turns out that the object_p bfd_target* return value isn't needed.
In all cases except ld/plugin.c the target is abfd->xvec and with
ld/plugin.c the target isn't used. So this patch returns a cleanup
function from object_p instead, called in bfd_check_format_matches to
tidy the bfd before trying a different target match. The only cleanup
that does anything at this stage is the alpha-vms one.

I noticed GDB was failing to enable threading support for 32-bit AIX
cores. I traced it to failure to read variables from libpthreads.a.
The issue is that data for that library is loaded at a high address,
and bfd is sign extending the section addresses:

Those are the bfd section start/end addresses. It't not visible here:
...
0xf0298000 - 0xf029bfcc is .data in /usr/lib/libpthreads.a(shr_xpg5.o)
...
... just because GDB trims that number to 32-bit when printing.
GDB then fails to find the memory for libpthreads.a variables in the
core, and falls back to reading it directly from the executable (which
yields the values as originally initialized in the code).
E.g.:
(gdb) p &__n_pthreads
$2 = (<data variable, no debug info> *) 0xf074fda8 <__n_pthreads>
(gdb) p __n_pthreads
$1 = -1
That should have returned 2 instead of -1.
