[PATCH v5 0/8] refactor the internals of record-full

[Guinevere Larsen <guinevere@redhat.com>]

This series introduces a refactor and modernization to the record-full
history, moving it form a manually managed doubly-linked list into an
std::deque, which can make better use of caching and might make
execution faster.

The main driving force behind this change is the plan to implement
support for multithreaded inferiors, since each instruction will need to
know the thread that executed it, and it'll be much easier if there is a
more consistent spot to find all this information.

All patches in this series have received review tags, so I plan to
approve it myself and pushing it next monday if no further reviews
happen.

Changes for v5: Added an assert that we are always assigning entries to
uninitialized entries, and comment explaining the reasoning.

Changes for v4: Split the first commit into the majority of the
refactor and the refactoring of reading/writing to a corefile. The rest
was mostly cosmetic changes suggested by Christina.

Changes for v3: Made the former "cleanup" functions into actual
destructors. To do that and avoid double-frees, I made it so
record_full_entry (and the 2 classes under it) can't be copied, only
moved. Also implemented almost all the feedback from Christina on the
changes.
