[PATCH v3] gdb: xtensa: fix frame initialization when PC is invalid


When gdb is used on core dump and PC is not pointing to a readable
memory read_memory_integer call in the xtensa_frame_cache throws an
error, making register inspection/backtracing impossible in that thread.

Use safe_read_memory_integer instead.

gdb/
	* xtensa-tdep.c (xtensa_frame_cache): Change op1 type to LONGEST.
	Use safe_read_memory_integer instead of read_memory_integer.
---
Changes v2->v3:
- change op1 type to LONGEST.

Changes v1->v2:
- use safe_read_memory_integer instead of TRY/CATCH block.
