    Fix "maintenance selftest" printing stray instructions
    
    The "maintenance selftest" command is printing odd bits of stray
    instructions like:
    
    ~~~
    brkwarning: A handler for the OS ABI "GNU/Linux" is not built into this configuration
    of GDB.  Attempting to continue with the default HS settings.

    etc.  Those appear because here:
    
      class gdb_disassembler_test : public gdb_disassembler
      {
      public:
    
        const bool verbose = false;
    
        explicit gdb_disassembler_test (struct gdbarch *gdbarch,
    				    const gdb_byte *insn,
    				    size_t len)
          : gdb_disassembler (gdbarch,
    			  (verbose ? gdb_stdout : &null_stream),
    			  gdb_disassembler_test::read_memory),
    
    
    specifically in this line:
    
    			  (verbose ? gdb_stdout : &null_stream),
    
    "verbose" has not been initialized yet, because the order of
    initialization is base classes first, then members.  I.e. "verbose" is
    only initialized after the base constructor is called.  Since the
    gdb_disassembler_test object is created on the stack, "verbose" has
    garbage at that point.  If the gargage is non-zero, then we end up
    with the gdb_disassembler_test's stream incorrectly pointing to
    gdb_stdout.
    
    gdb/ChangeLog:
    2017-02-02  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>
    
    	* disasm-selftests.c (print_one_insn_test): Move the "verbose"
    	field out of gdb_disassembler_test and make it static.
