[PATCH V2 1/5] Teach arm unwinders to terminate gracefully

[Antoine Tremblay <antoine.tremblay@ericsson.com>]

When examining a trace buffer we have the following issue:

~~~
tfind start
Register 13 is not available
Found trace frame 0, tracepoint 2
#-1 0x40123556 in pendfunc2
^^^
~~~

The reason for this is that the target's stack pointer is unavailable
when examining the trace buffer.  What we are seeing is due to the
'tfind' command creating a sentinel frame and unwinding it.  If an
exception is thrown, we are left with the sentinel frame being displayed
at level #-1.  The exception is thrown when the prologue unwinder tries
to read the stack pointer to construct an ID for the frame.

This patch fixes this and similar issues by making all the arm unwinders
catch NOT_AVAILABLE_ERROR exceptions when either register or memory is
unreadable and report back to the frame core code with UNWIND_UNAVAILABLE.

Note this commit log adapted from 7dfa3edc033c443036d9f2a3e01120f7fb54f498
which fixed a similar issue for aarch64.

No regressions, tested on ubuntu 14.04 ARMv7 and x86.
With gdbserver-{native,extended} / { -marm -mthumb }

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* arm-tdep.c (struct arm_prologue_cache) <available_p>: New field.
	(arm_make_prologue_cache): Swallow NOT_AVAIABLE_ERROR or set
	available_p.
	(arm_prologue_unwind_stop_reason): Return UNWIND_UNAVAILABLE if
	available_p is not set.
	(arm_prologue_this_id): Call frame_id_build_unavailable_stack if
	available_p is not set.
	(arm_make_stub_cache): Swallow NOT_AVAIABLE_ERROR or set
	available_p.
	(arm_stub_this_id): Call frame_id_build_unavailable_stack if
	available_p is not set.
	(arm_m_exception_cache): Swallow NOT_AVAIABLE_ERROR or set
	available_p.
	(arm_m_exception_this_id): Call frame_id_build_unavailable_stack if
	available_p is not set.
