Implement remote_bfd_iovec_stat
This commit adds a new packet "vFile:fstat:" to the remote protocol that can be used by to retrieve information about files that have been previously opened using vFile:open. vFile:fstat: support is added to GDB, and remote_bfd_iovec_stat is implemented using it. If vFile:fstat: is not supported by the remote GDB creates a dummy result by zeroing the supplied stat structure and setting its st_size field to INT_MAX. This mimics GDB's previous behaviour, with the exception that GDB did not previously zero the structure so all other fields would have been returned unchanged, which is to say very likely populated with random values from the stack. gdb/ChangeLog: * remote-fileio.h (remote_fileio_to_host_stat): New declaration. * remote-fileio.c (remote_fileio_to_host_uint): New function. (remote_fileio_to_host_ulong): Likewise. (remote_fileio_to_host_mode): Likewise. (remote_fileio_to_host_time): Likewise. (remote_fileio_to_host_stat): Likewise. * remote.c (PACKET_vFile_fstat): New enum value. (remote_protocol_features): Register the "vFile:fstat" feature. (remote_hostio_fstat): New function. (remote_bfd_iovec_stat): Use the above. (_initialize_remote): Register new "set/show remote hostio-fstat-packet" command. * symfile.c (separate_debug_file_exists): Update comment. * NEWS: Announce new vFile:fstat packet. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * gdb.texinfo (Remote Configuration): Document the "set/show remote hostio-fstat-packet" command. (General Query Packets): Document the vFile:fstat qSupported features. (Host I/O Packets): Document the vFile:fstat packet.
