[PATCH] Allow spaces in filename to add-symbol-file command


Hi,

The war against missing space support continues!

I have altered add_symbol_file_command() to use buildargv() instead of parsing the arguments itself. This should allow quoting and hence spaces in the filename.

Additionally, I have reordered the help message so that 'help files' uses the right part of the message and updated the testsuite to match.

OK?

	* symfile.c (add_symbol_file_command): Use buildargv(), instead of
	hand decoding the command line, to allow use of quotes and spaces.
	(_initialize_symfile): Reorganize the help message for add-symbol-file
	such that 'help files' shows a better message.

testsuite/
	* gdb.base/help.exp (help add-symbol-file): Update.
