Make strcmp_iw NOT ignore whitespace in the middle of tokens
currently "b func tion" manages to set a breakpoint at "function" ! All these years I had never noticed this, but now that the linespec completer actually works, this easily happens by accident, with: "b func t<tab>" expecting to get "thread", but getting instead: "b func tion" ... Also, this: "b rettypefunc<int>" manages to set a breakpoint on "rettype func<int>()". These things happen due to strcmp_iw "magic". Fix it by teaching strcmp_iw about when can it skip whitespace. This required handling user-defined operators, and scope operators, complicating the code a bit, unfortunately. I added unit tests for all the corner cases I stumbled on, as I was developing this, and then in the end wrote a testsuite testcase covering many of the same things and more (to be added later). gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-11-24 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * cp-support.c (cp_symbol_name_matches_1): New, factored out from cp_fq_symbol_name_matches. Pass language_cplus to strncmp_with_mode. (cp_fq_symbol_name_matches): Call cp_symbol_name_matches_1. (selftests::test_cp_symbol_name_cmp): New. (_initialize_cp_support): Register "cp_symbol_name_matches" selftests. * language.c (default_symbol_name_matcher): Pass language_minimal to strncmp_iw_with_mode. * utils.c: Include "cp-support.h" and <algorithm>. (valid_identifier_name_char, cp_skip_operator_token, skip_ws) (cp_is_operator): New functions. (strncmp_iw_with_mode): Use them. Add language parameter. Don't skip whitespace in the symbol name when the lookup name doesn't have spaces, and vice versa. (strncmp_iw, strcmp_iw): Pass language to strncmp_iw_with_mode. * utils.h (strncmp_iw_with_mode): Add language parameter.
