[PATCH v3 3/4] reggroups: Create reggroup_gdbarch_new for dynamic reggroups


Traditionally reggroups have been created via reggroup_new() during
initialization code and never freed.  Now, if we want to initialize
reggroups dynamically (i.e. in target description) we should be able to
free them.  Create this function reggroup_gdbarch_new() which will
allocate the reggroup memory onto the passed gdbarch obstack.

gdb/ChangeLog:

2017-06-10  Stafford Horne  <shorne@gmail.com>

	* reggroups.c (reggroup_gdbarch_new): New function.
	* reggroups.h (reggroup_gdbarch_new): New function.
