[PATCH] Record nested types


GDB currently does not track types defined in classes.  Consider:

class A
{
  public:

  class B
  {
    public:
      class C { };
  };
};

(gdb) ptype A
type = class A {
   <no data fields>
}

This patch changes this behavior so that GDB records these nested types
and displays them to the user when he has set the (new) "print type"
option "nested-type-limit."

Example:

(gdb) set print type nested-type-limit 1
(gdb) ptype A
type = class A {
    <no data fields>
    class A::B {
        <no data fields>
    };
}
(gdb) set print type nested-type-limit 2
type = class A {
    <no data fields>
    class A::B {
        <no data fields>
        class A::B::C {
            <no data fields>
        };
    };
}

By default, the code maintains the status quo, that is, it will not print
any nested type definitions at all.

Testing is carried out via cp_ptype_class which required quite a bit of
modificaiton to permit recursive calling (for the nested types).  This
was most easily facilitated by turning the ptype command output into a
queue.  Upshot: the test suite now has stack and queue data structures that
may be used by test writers.

gdb/ChangeLog
