[PATCH 0/5] Handle pointers and references correctly in DAP

[Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com>]

This series started off as a simple implementation of a no-op
pretty-printer to handle pointers and references in DAP.

However, this regressed a test, and I realized that the new
is-array-like and is-string-like code should be generalized to work
with any language.

This is done by associating a language with each type, which meant
touching every debug reader, plus a few minor preliminary cleanups.

Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 36.
