[binutils-gdb/gdb-7.12-branch] Fix longjmp across readline w/ --enable-sjlj-exceptions toolchains


*** TEST RESULTS FOR COMMIT ada8ff522ce970e11dae4a3463c899b64e6f5006 ***

Fix longjmp across readline w/ --enable-sjlj-exceptions toolchains

Nowadays, GDB propagates C++ exceptions across readline using
setjmp/longjmp 89525768cd08 ("Propagate GDB/C++ exceptions across
readline using sj/lj-based TRY/CATCH") because DWARF-based unwinding
can't cross C functions compiled without -fexceptions (see details
from the commit above).

Unfortunately, toolchains that use SjLj-based C++ exceptions got
broken with that fix, because _Unwind_SjLj_Unregister, which is put at
the exit of a function, is not executed due to the longjmp added by
that commit.

Fix this by making the functions involved in setjmp/longjmp as
noexcept, so that the compiler knows it doesn't need to emit the
_Unwind_SjLj_Register / _Unwind_SjLj_Unregister calls for C++
exceptions.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23 with:
 - GCC 5.3.1 w/ DWARF-based exceptions.
 - GCC 7 built with --enable-sjlj-exceptions.
