Add negative repeat count to 'x' command
This change adds support for specifying a negative repeat count to
all the formats of the 'x' command to examine memory backward.
A new testcase 'examine-backward' is added to cover this new feature.
Here's the example output from the new feature:
<format 'i'>
(gdb) bt

#1 0x00000000004041fa in main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffdff8) at main.cpp:19

* NEWS: Mention that GDB now supports a negative repeat count in
the 'x' command.
* printcmd.c (decode_format): Allow '-' in the parameter
"string_ptr" to accept a negative repeat count.
(find_instruction_backward): New function.
(read_memory_backward): New function.
(integer_is_zero): New function.
(find_string_backward): New function.
(do_examine): Use new functions to examine memory backward.
(_initialize_printcmd): Mention that 'x' command supports a negative
repeat count.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (Examining Memory): Document negative repeat
count in the 'x' command.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/examine-backward.c: New file.
