This adds a command for listing the "user" registers. So far GDB
offered no means of determining the set of user registers and omitted
them from all other register listings.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* user-regs.c: Include "target.h" and "cli/cli-cmds.h".
(maintenance_print_user_registers): New.
(_initialize_user_regs): Register new "maint print user-registers"
subcommand.
* NEWS: Mention new GDB command "maint print user-registers".
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo: Document "maint print user-registers".

Provide a new completion function for the argument of "info
registers", "info all-registers", and the "lr" command in dbx mode.
Without this patch the default symbol completer is used, which is more
confusing than helpful.
Also add a test for this new feature to "completion.exp": Determine
the target's available set of registers/reggroups and compare this to
the completion of "info registers ". For determining the available
registers involve the new "maint print user-registers" command.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* completer.c: Include "target.h", "reggroups.h", and
"user-regs.h".
(reg_or_group_completer): New.
* completer.h (reg_or_group_completer): Declare.
* infcmd.c (_initialize_infcmd): Set reg_or_group_completer for
the "info registers" and "info all-registers" commands and the
dbx-mode "lr" command.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/completion.exp: Add test for completion of "info
registers ".
