[binutils-gdb] Get rid of "gdb_dirbuf" and use "getcwd (NULL, 0)"

commit 43573013c9836f2b91b74b9b29dac35fdb41e06b
Author: Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>

    Get rid of "gdb_dirbuf" and use "getcwd (NULL, 0)"
    
    Currently we have "current_directory" and "gdb_dirbuf" globals, which
    means that we basically have two possible places to consult when we
    want to know GDB's current working directory.
    
    This is not ideal and can lead to confusion.  Moreover, the way we're
    using "gdb_difbuf" along with "getcwd" is problematic because we
    declare the buffer with "1024" elements hardcoded, which does not take
    into account longer pathnames that are possible in many filesystems.
    Using "PATH_MAX" would also not be a solution because of portability
    problems.  Therefore, the best solution is to rely on the fact that
    "getcwd (NULL, 0)" will "do the right thing" and return a
    heap-allocated string containing the full path.  With the new "getcwd"
    module from gnulib, it is now possible to do that without worrying
    about breaking some host.
    
    With this patch "current_directory" is now the only place to check for
    GDB's cwd.

    	* cli/cli-cmds.c (pwd_command): Use "getcwd (NULL, 0)".
    	(cd_command): Likewise.  Free "current_directory" before
    	assigning to it.
    	* main.c (captured_main_1): Use "getcwd (NULL, 0)".
    	* mi/mi-cmd-env.c (mi_cmd_env_pwd): Likewise.
    	* top.c (gdb_dirbuf): Remove global declaration.
    	* top.h (gdb_dirbuf): Likewise.
