590042fc45 Make first and last lines of 'command help documentation' consistent.
With this patch, the help docs now respect 2 invariants:
  * The first line of a command help is terminated by a '.' character.
  * The last character of a command help is not a newline character.

Note that the changes for the last invariant were done by Tom, as part of :
 [PATCH] Remove trailing newlines from help text
 https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-06/msg00050.html
but some occurrences have been re-introduced since then.

Some help docs had to be rephrased/restructured to respect the above
invariants.

Before this patch, print_doc_line was printing the first line
of a command help documentation, but stopping at the first '.'
or ',' character.

This was giving inconsistent results :
  * The first line of command helps was sometimes '.' terminated,
    sometimes not.
  * The first line of command helps was not always designed to be
    readable/understandable/unambiguous when stopping at the first
    '.' or ',' character.

This e.g. created the following inconsistencies/problems:
< catch exception -- Catch Ada exceptions
< catch handlers -- Catch Ada exceptions
< catch syscall -- Catch system calls by their names
< down-silently -- Same as the `down' command
while the new help is:
> catch exception -- Catch Ada exceptions, when raised.
> catch handlers -- Catch Ada exceptions, when handled.
> catch syscall -- Catch system calls by their names, groups and/or numbers.
> down-silently -- Same as the `down' command, but does not print anything.

Also, the command help doc should not be terminated by a newline
character, but this was not respected by all commands.
The cli-option -OPT framework re-introduced some occurences.
So, the -OPT build help framework was changed to not output newlines at the
end of %OPTIONS% replacement.

This patch changes the help documentations to ensure the 2 invariants
given above.

It implied to slightly rephrase or restructure some help docs.

Based on the above invariants, print_doc_line (called by
'apropos' and 'help' commands to print the first line of a command
help) now outputs the full first line of a command help.

This all results in a lot of small changes in the produced help docs.
There are less code changes than changes in the help docs, as a lot
of docs are produced by some code (e.g. the remote packet usage settings).

0d12e84cfc Don't include gdbarch.h from defs.h
I touched symtab.h and was surprised to see how many files were
rebuilt.  I looked into it a bit, and found that defs.h includes
gdbarch.h, which in turn includes many things.

gdbarch.h is only needed by a minority ofthe files in gdb, so this
patch removes the include from defs.h and updates the fallout.

I did "wc -l" on the files in build/gdb/.deps; this patch reduces the
line count from 139935 to 137030; so there are definitely future
build-time savings here.

Note that while I configured with --enable-targets=all, it's possible
that some *-nat.c file needs an update.  I could not test all of
these.  The buildbot caught a few problems along these lines.

268a13a5a3 Rename common to gdbsupport
This is the next patch in the ongoing series to move gdbsever to the
top level.

This patch just renames the "common" directory.  The idea is to do
this move in two parts: first rename the directory (this patch), then
move the directory to the top.  This approach makes the patches a bit
more tractable.

I chose the name "gdbsupport" for the directory.  However, as this
patch was largely written by sed, we could pick a new name without too
much difficulty.

Tested by the buildbot.

42a4f53d2b Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
This commit applies all changes made after running the gdb/copyright.py
script.

Note that one file was flagged by the script, due to an invalid
copyright header
(gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/element_access/char/empty.cc).
As the file was copied from GCC's libstdc++-v3 testsuite, this commit
leaves this file untouched for the time being; a patch to fix the header
was sent to gcc-patches first.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
