[commit] ARM: Recognize RealView call veneers


In Thumb-1 mode, you sometimes need a stub function to call via a
function pointer.  GDB recognizes the names of the stubs that GCC
uses; this adds the equivalent check for the names that RealView
uses.  Neither set of names is particularly magical or ABI-enshrined.

Tested on arm-none-eabi, checked in.

	* arm-tdep.c (arm_skip_stub): Recognize RealView veneer functions.
