Avoid side effects in expression lexers
I noticed that some of the lexers were calling write_dollar_variable from the lexer. This seems like a bad practice, so this patch moves the side effects into the parsers. I tested this by re-running gdb.fortran and gdb.modula2; the Pascal compiler on my machine seems not to work, so I couldn't test gdb.pascal. I note that the type-tracking in the Pascal is also incorrect, in that a convenience variable's type may change between parsing and evaluation (or even during the course of evaluation). gdb/ChangeLog 2020-12-11 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * p-exp.y (intvar): Remove global. (DOLLAR_VARIABLE): Change type. (start): Update. (exp): Call write_dollar_variable here... (yylex): ... not here. * m2-exp.y (DOLLAR_VARIABLE): Change type. (variable): Call write_dollar_variable here... (yylex): ... not here. * f-exp.y (DOLLAR_VARIABLE): Change type. (exp): Call write_dollar_variable here... (yylex): ... not here.
