Add returnValue scope to DAP
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The DAP spec recently changed to add a new scope for the return value
from a "stepOut" request.  This new scope uses the "returnValue"
presentation hint.  See:

    microsoft/debug-adapter-protocol#458

This patch implements this for gdb.

** The "scopes" request will now return a scope holding global
variables from the stack frame's compilation unit.

** The "scopes" request will return a "returnValue" scope holding
the return value from the latest "stepOut" command, when
appropriate.

* For ARM targets, the offset of the pc in the jmp_buf has been fixed to match
glibc 2.20 and later. This should only matter when not using libc probes.
This may cause breakage when using an incompatible libc, like uclibc or
