Schimpe, Christina 2a56698523 gdb: use alternative for demangled name for non-demangeable linkage names
In case a DIE contains a linkage name which cannot be demangled and
a source language name (DW_AT_NAME) exists then we want to display this name
instead of the non-demangeable linkage name.

dwarf2_physname returns the linkage name in case the linkage name
cannot be demangled.  Before this patch we always set the returned physname
as demangled name.  This patch changes this by comparing the value
of physname with the linkage name.  Now after this change in case it is equals
to the linkage name and if DW_AT_NAME exists then this is set as the demangled
name otherwise like before still linkage name is used.

For the reproducer, using the test source file added in this change:
"gdb/testsuite/gdb.dwarf2/dw2-wrong-mangled-name.c"

Here is an example of the DWARF where wrong linkage name is emitted by the
compiler for the "func_demangled_test" function:

subprogram {
    {MACRO_AT_range {func_demangled_test}}
    {linkage_name "_FUNC_WRONG_MANGLED__"}
    {name "func_demangled_test"}
    {external 1 flag}
}
subprogram {
    {MACRO_AT_range {main}}
    {external 1 flag}
    {name main}
    {main_subprogram 1 flag}
}

Before this change for a function having both DIEs DW_AT_name and
DW_AT_LINKAGENAME but with the wrong linkage name info, the backtrace
command shows following:

(gdb) b func_demangled_test
(gdb) r
Breakpoint 1, 0x0000555555555131 in _FUNC_WRONG_MANGLED__ ()
(gdb) backtrace
\#0  0x0000555555555131 in  _FUNC_WRONG_MANGLED__ ()
\#1  0x000055555555514a in main ()

After the change now GDB shows the name emitted by DW_AT_NAME:

(gdb) b func_demangled_test
(gdb) r
Breakpoint 1, 0x0000555555555131 in func_demangled_test ()
(gdb) backtrace
\#0  0x0000555555555131 in func_demangled_test ()
\#1  0x000055555555514a in main ()

A new test is added to verify this change.

		   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.
