Use unique_xmalloc_ptr in Python code
This changes some utility functions in the Python code to return unique_xmalloc_ptr, and then fixes up the callers. I chose unique_xmalloc_ptr rather than std::string because at a few call points the xmalloc'd string is released and ownership transferred elsewhere. This patch found a few existing memory leaks. For example, py-unwind.c called gdbpy_obj_to_string but never freed the result. Built and regression tested on the buildbot. 2016-11-09 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * varobj.h (varobj_get_display_hint): Change return type. * varobj.c (varobj_get_display_hint): Return unique_xmalloc_ptr. (varobj_value_get_print_value): Update. * python/python.c (gdbpy_before_prompt_hook, gdbpy_print_stack) (gdbpy_apply_type_printers): Update. * python/python-internal.h (unicode_to_target_string) (python_string_to_target_string, python_string_to_host_string) (gdbpy_obj_to_string, gdbpy_exception_to_string) (gdbpy_get_display_hint): Change return types. * python/py-varobj.c (py_varobj_iter_next): Update. * python/py-value.c (valpy_getitem, convert_value_from_python): Update. * python/py-utils.c (unicode_to_encoded_string) (unicode_to_target_string, python_string_to_target_string) (python_string_to_host_string, gdbpy_obj_to_string) (gdbpy_exception_to_string): Return unique_xmalloc_ptr. * python/py-unwind.c (pyuw_parse_register_id): Update. * python/py-type.c (typy_getitem): Update. * python/py-prettyprint.c (gdbpy_get_display_hint) (print_stack_unless_memory_error, print_children) (gdbpy_apply_val_pretty_printer): Update. * python/py-param.c (set_parameter_value): Update. (get_doc_string, call_doc_function): Return unique_xmalloc_ptr. (get_set_value, get_show_value, compute_enum_values, parmpy_init): Update. * python/py-infthread.c (thpy_set_name): Update. * python/py-function.c (fnpy_call, fnpy_init): Update. * python/py-framefilter.c (extract_sym): Change "name" to unique_xmalloc_ptr. (enumerate_args, enumerate_locals): Update. (py_print_frame): Use unique_xmalloc_ptr. * python/py-frame.c (frapy_read_var): Update. Remove cleanup. * python/py-cmd.c (cmdpy_function, cmdpy_completer, cmdpy_init): Update. * python/py-breakpoint.c (bppy_set_condition): Use unique_xmalloc_ptr. (bppy_init): Likewise. Remove cleanup. (local_setattro): Update. * mi/mi-cmd-var.c (print_varobj, mi_cmd_var_list_children) (varobj_update_one): Update.
