[PATCH] Fix crash in is_nocall_function

[Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>]

is_nocall_function anticipates only being called for a function or a
method.  However, PR gdb/29871 points out a situation where an unusual
expression -- but one that parses to a valid, if extremely weird,
function call -- breaks this assumption.

This patch changes is_nocall_function to remove this assert and
instead simply return 'false' in this case.
