    gdb/amdgpu: provide dummy implementation of gdbarch_return_value_as_value
    
    The AMD GPU support has been merged shortly after commit 4e1d2f5814b2
    ("Add new overload of gdbarch_return_value"), which made it mandatory
    for architectures to provide either a return_value or
    return_value_as_value implementation.  Because of my failure to test
    properly after rebasing and before pushing, we get this with the current
    master:
    
        $ gdb ./gdb -nx --data-directory=data-directory -q -ex "set arch amdgcn:gfx1010" -batch
        /home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbarch.c:517: internal-error: verify_gdbarch: the following are invalid ...
                return_value_as_value
    
    I started trying to change GDB to not force architectures to provide a
    return_value or return_value_as_value implementation, but Andrew pointed
    out that any serious port will have an implementation one day or
    another, and it's easy to add a dummy implementation in the mean time.
    So it's better to not complicate the core of GDB to know how to deal
    with this.
    
    There is an implementation of return_value in the downstream ROCgdb port
    (which we'll need to convert to the new return_value_as_value), which
    we'll contribute soon-ish.  In the mean time, add a dummy implementation
    of return_value_as_value to avoid the failed assertion.
