[binutils-gdb] Fix racy output matching in gdb.tui/tui-completion.exp


*** TEST RESULTS FOR COMMIT 584a564f366de16d1cecd1910ab0be8ca6167415 ***

Author: Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
Branch: master
Commit: 584a564f366de16d1cecd1910ab0be8ca6167415

Fix racy output matching in gdb.tui/tui-completion.exp

'make check-read1 TESTS="gdb.tui/tui-completion.exp"' exposes this test race:

  (gdb) PASS: gdb.tui/completion.exp: set max-completions unlimited
  layout ^G
  asm    next   prev   regs   split  src
  (gdb) FAIL: gdb.tui/completion.exp: completion of layout names: tab completion
  Quit
  (gdb) PASS: gdb.tui/completion.exp: completion of layout names: quit command input
  focus ^G
  cmd   next  prev  src
  (gdb) FAIL: gdb.tui/completion.exp: completion of focus command: tab completion
  Quit

This is caused by expecting "$gdb_prompt layout $".
gdb_test_multiple's internal prompt regexp can match first if expect's
internal buffer is filled with partial output.  Fix that by splitting
the gdb_test_multiple in question in two.  Since the same problem/code
appears twice in the file, factor out a common procedure.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2017-11-09  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	* gdb.tui/tui-completion.exp (test_tab_completion): New procedure,
	factored out from ...
	(top level): ... here, and adjusted to avoid expecting beyond the
	prompt in a single gdb_test_multiple.
