Andrew Burgess 20ea4a609c gdbserver/gdbsupport: Add .dir-locals.el file
Copy the .dir-locls.el file from gdb/ to gdbserver/ and gdbsupport/ so
that we get the GNU/GDB style when editing these files in Emacs.

I initially wanted to remove the (c-mode . ((mode . c++))) that
switches c-mode files into c++-mode as we store C++ code in *.cc files
in the gdbserver/ directory, unlike gdb/ where we use *.c, however, I
was forgetting about the header files - we still use *.h for our C++
header files, so for now I left the settings in place to open all C
files in c++-mode.

We now have three copies of this file, which are all identical.  It
would be nice if we could remove this duplication, however, for now we
haven't found a good way to do this.

Some options considered were:

  1. Use symlinks to only have one copy of the file.  This was
  rejected as not all targets support symlinks in the way.

  2. Have two of the .dir-locals.el files contain some mechanism by
  which the third copy of the file is sourced.  Though this would, in
  theory, be possible, it would involve some advanced Emacs scripting,
  would be fragile, and a maintenance burdon.

  3. Move the .dir-locals up into top level src/ directory, then use
  Emacs dir-locals directory pattern matching to only apply the rules
  for the three directories we care about.  The problem is that each
  directory has to be listed separately, so we still end up having to
  duplicate all the rules.

In the end, it was decided that having three copies of the file,
though not ideal, is probably easiest for now.  This was all discussed
in this mailing list thread:

  https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2020-03/msg00024.html

The copyright date in the new files is left as for gdb/.dir-locals.el,
as the new files are a copy of the old, this is inline with this rule:

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
