Change target_read_string to use unique_xmalloc_ptr
This changes the out parameter of target_read_string to be a unique_xmalloc_ptr. This avoids a cleanup and sets the stage for more cleanup removals. This patch also removes a seemingly needless alloca from print_subexp_standard. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-30 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * windows-nat.c (handle_output_debug_string, handle_exception): Update. * target.h (target_read_string): Update. * target.c (target_read_string): Change "string" to unique_xmalloc_ptr. * solib-svr4.c (open_symbol_file_object, svr4_read_so_list): Update. * solib-frv.c (frv_current_sos): Update. * solib-dsbt.c (dsbt_current_sos): Update. * solib-darwin.c (darwin_current_sos): Update. * linux-thread-db.c (inferior_has_bug): Update. * expprint.c (print_subexp_standard) <case OP_OBJC_MSGCALL>: Update.
