[PATCH v2 1/3] Store the mangled name as a string_view

["Christian Biesinger via gdb-patches" <gdb-patches@sourceware.org>]

This should be a bit faster (because we can compare the size first),
but it is also a dependency for the next patch.

(3.47% of gdb startup time is spent in eq_demangled_name_entry when
attaching to Chrome's content_shell binary)

gdb/ChangeLog:

2019-09-27  Christian Biesinger  <cbiesinger@google.com>

	* symtab.c (struct demangled_name_entry): Change type of mangled
	to gdb::string_view.
	(hash_demangled_name_entry): Update.
	(eq_demangled_name_entry): Update.
	(symbol_set_names): Update.
