1d506c26d9 Update copyright year range in header of all files managed by GDB
This commit is the result of the following actions:

  - Running gdb/copyright.py to update all of the copyright headers to
    include 2024,

  - Manually updating a few files the copyright.py script told me to
    update, these files had copyright headers embedded within the
    file,

  - Regenerating gdbsupport/Makefile.in to refresh it's copyright
    date,

  - Using grep to find other files that still mentioned 2023.  If
    these files were updated last year from 2022 to 2023 then I've
    updated them this year to 2024.

I'm sure I've probably missed some dates.  Feel free to fix them up as
you spot them.

This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script,
which automated the update of the copyright year range for all
source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.

77252bf26e [gdb/build] Add CXX_DIALECT to CXX
Say we use a gcc version that (while supporting c++11) does not support c++11
by default, and needs an -std setting to enable it.

If gdb would use the default AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX from autoconf-archive, then
we'd have:
...
CXX="g++ -std=gnu++11"
...

That mechanism however has the following problem (quoting from commit
0bcda685399):
...
the top level Makefile passes CXX down to subdirs, and that overrides whatever
gdb/Makefile may set CXX to.  The result would be that a make invocation from
the build/gdb/ directory would use "g++ -std=gnu++11" as expected, while a
make invocation at the top level would not.
...

Commit 0bcda685399 fixes this by using a custom AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX which
does:
...
CXX=g++
CXX_DIALECT=-std=gnu++11
...

The problem reported in PR28318 is that using the custom instead of the
default AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX makes the configure test for std::thread
support fail.

We could simply add $CXX_DIALECT to the test for std::thread support, but
that would have to be repeated for each added c++ support test.

Instead, fix this by doing:
...
CXX="g++ -std=gnu++11"
CXX_DIALECT=-std=gnu++11
...

This is somewhat awkward, since it results in -std=gnu++11 occuring twice in
some situations:
...
$ touch src/gdb/dwarf2/read.c
$ ( cd build/gdb; make V=1 dwarf2/read.o )
g++-4.8 -std=gnu++11 -x c++ -std=gnu++11 ...
...

However, both settings are needed:
 - the switch in CXX for the std::thread tests (and other tests)
 - the switch in CXX_DIALECT so it can be appended in Makefiles, to
   counteract the fact that the top-level Makefile overrides CXX

The code added in gdb/ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4 is copied from the default
AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX from autoconf-archive.

Tested on x86_64-linux.

42a4f53d2b Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
This commit applies all changes made after running the gdb/copyright.py
script.

Note that one file was flagged by the script, due to an invalid
copyright header
(gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/element_access/char/empty.cc).
As the file was copied from GCC's libstdc++-v3 testsuite, this commit
leaves this file untouched for the time being; a patch to fix the header
was sent to gcc-patches first.

	Update copyright year range in all GDB files.

41260ac25d Update ax_cv_cxx_compile_cxx.m4
This file provides the AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX macro.  In the context of
the following patch, I wanted to build and test GDB in c++17 mode.  The
version of the macro we have in the repo does not support detecting
c++17 compilers, but the upstream version has been updated to do so.

Since we have local modifications to the file, I had to reconcile our
modifications and the updated upstream version (which was relatively
straightforward).

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4: Sync with upstream.
	* configure: Re-generate.

0bcda68539 gdb: Require C++11
Use AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX to detect if the compiler supports C++11,
and if -std=xxx switches are necessary to enable C++11.

We need to tweak AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX a bit though.  Pristine
upstream AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX appends -std=gnu++11 to CXX directly.
That doesn't work for us, because the top level Makefile passes CXX
down to subdirs, and that overrides whatever gdb/Makefile may set CXX
to.  The result would be that a make invocation from the build/gdb/
directory would use "g++ -std=gnu++11" as expected, while a make
invocation at the top level would not.

So instead of having AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX set CXX directly, tweak it
to AC_SUBST a separate variable -- CXX_DIALECT -- and use '$(CXX)
(CXX_DIALECT)' to compile/link.

Confirmed that this enables C++11 starting with gcc 4.8, the first gcc
release with full C++11 support.

Also confirmed that configure errors out gracefully with older GCC
releases:

  checking whether /opt/gcc-4.7/bin/g++ supports C++11 features by default... no
  checking whether /opt/gcc-4.7/bin/g++ supports C++11 features with -std=gnu++11... no
  checking whether /opt/gcc-4.7/bin/g++ supports C++11 features with -std=gnu++0x... no
  checking whether /opt/gcc-4.7/bin/g++ supports C++11 features with -std=c++11... no
  checking whether /opt/gcc-4.7/bin/g++ supports C++11 features with -std=c++0x... no
  checking whether /opt/gcc-4.7/bin/g++ supports C++11 features with +std=c++11... no
  checking whether /opt/gcc-4.7/bin/g++ supports C++11 features with -h std=c++11... no
  configure: error: *** A compiler with support for C++11 language features is required.
  Makefile:9451: recipe for target 'configure-gdb' failed
  make[1]: *** [configure-gdb] Error 1
  make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/pedro/brno/pedro/gdb/mygit/cxx-convertion/build-gcc-4.7'

If we need to revert back to making C++11 optional, all that's
necessary is to change the "mandatory" to "optional" in configure.ac
and regenerate configure (both gdb and gdbserver).

87106a7b0a gdb: Import AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX from the GNU Autoconf Archive
This macro throws C++11 code at the compiler in order to check whether
it supports C++11.  final/override, rvalue references, static_assert,
decltype, auto, constexpr, etc., and adds -std=gnu++11 to CXX if
necessary.

Nothing uses the macro yet.  Simply adding it as separate preliminary
step because we'll need local changes.
