Simon Marchi 703a86c2fa gdb: re-write add_psymbol_to_list doc, move it to header file
The comment above the add_psymbol_to_list function seems outdated and
misleading, here's an attempt at improving it.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* psymtab.c (add_psymbol_to_list): Move comment to psympriv.h.
	* psympriv.h (add_psymbol_to_list): Move comment here and update
	it.

included in those.
Shared psymtabs have special semantics. When a search finds a
symbol in a shared table, we instead return one of the non-shared
tables that include this one.
A shared psymtabs can be referred to by other shared ones.
The psymtabs that refer to a shared psymtab will list the shared
psymtab in their 'dependencies' array.
In DWARF terms, a shared psymtab is a DW_TAG_partial_unit; but
of course using a name based on that would be too confusing, so
"shared" was chosen instead.

psymtab, we only need to expand its "canonical" non-shared user.
