[PATCH 11/12] gdb: make displaced stepping implementation capable of managing multiple buffers

[Simon Marchi via Gdb-patches <gdb-patches@sourceware.org>]

The displaced_step_buffer class, introduced in the previous patch,
manages access to a single displaced step buffer.  Change it into
displaced_step_buffers (note the plural), which manages access to
multiple displaced step buffers.

When preparing a displaced step for a thread, it looks for an unused
buffer.

For now, all users still pass a single displaced step buffer, so no real
behavior change is expected here.  The following patch makes a user pass
more than one buffer, so the functionality introduced by this patch is
going to be useful in the next one.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* displaced-stepping.h (struct displaced_step_buffer): Rename
	to...
	(struct displaced_step_buffers): ... this.
	<m_addr, m_current_thread, m_copy_insn_closure>: Remove.
	<struct displaced_step_buffer>: New inner class.
	<m_buffers>: New.
	* displaced-stepping.c (displaced_step_buffer::prepare): Rename
	to...
	(displaced_step_buffers::prepare): ... this, adjust for multiple
	buffers.
	(displaced_step_buffer::finish):  Rename to...
	(displaced_step_buffers::finish): ... this, adjust for multiple
	buffers.
	(displaced_step_buffer::copy_insn_closure_by_addr): Rename to...
	(displaced_step_buffers::copy_insn_closure_by_addr): ... this,
	adjust for multiple buffers.
	(displaced_step_buffer::restore_in_ptid): Rename to...
	(displaced_step_buffers::restore_in_ptid): ... this, adjust for
	multiple buffers.
	* linux-tdep.h (linux_init_abi): Change supports_displaced_step
	for num_disp_step_buffers.
	* linux-tdep.c (struct linux_gdbarch_data)
	<num_disp_step_buffers>: New field.

	<disp_step_bufs>: ... this, change type to
	displaced_step_buffers.

	(linux_displaced_step_restore_all_in_ptid): Adjust.
