[RFA]: no "no debugging symbols found" for separate debug


Hi,

when a stripped executable with a separate debug file is loaded, gdb prints "no debugging symbols found".
I think this is confusing and this was not printed in gdb 6.8


The reason is that only the objfile is checked, not the separate debug file.

This patch fixes that and add a test in the sepdebug.exp file.

Tristan.

	* objfiles.c (objfile_has_symbols): New function.
	* objfiles.h (objfile_has_symbols): Add prototype.
	* symfile.c (symbol_file_add_with_addrs_or_offsets): Call
	objfile_has_symbols.
	(reread_symbols): Ditto.

* gdb.base/sepdebug.exp: Check debug info are found.
