HPPA files naming convention...


I find the naming convention for the hppa targets too short for my
liking: - hppah  -> hppa on hpux
        - hppao  -> hppa on osf
        - hppab  -> hppa on bsd

I suggest we transition to a more verbose naming, which should be more
consistent with the other ports I know. For instance, how about
hppa-hpux instead of hppah. I hear a netbsd port will probably be done
in the future, we can then use hppa-netbsd.

We would use this convention for the files in the config/pa directory
(tm-hppa-hpux.h, hppa-hpux.mt, etc), and also for for the files in gdb
(hppa-hpux-tdep.c).

The part that is indenpedent of the OS would still stay in hppa (eg
tm-hppa, hppa-tdep.c, etc).

Does this seam like a good idea?
