This patch series started with me trying to make it easier to test GDB's
ability to unwind using CFI data, to improve a previous patch I sent to
the list. However, once I finished these changes, I realized there was
an unrelated bug I should fix before proposing the CFI test. Since these
changes are significant enough already, and I think would be interesting
on their own, I figured I shoudl submit this patch series as is right
now while I figure out the other bug.

The first patch is just a minor change, storing frame unwinders in a
vector instead of through an unwinder table accessible using the
registry system. This isn't required (like I originally thought it was),
but it does make the whole system more readable in my opinion.

Patch 3 has the real meat of the modernization, making GDB use
polymorphism to handle frame unwinders. This is slightly slower than
using function pointers, but much more readable in my opinion.

As for the unwinder classes, they were chosen somewhat arbitrarily,
mostly based on where I found an unwinder and its name. I almost expect
some unwinders to be mis-categorized, but that should be easy to fix.

The changes up to patch 3 have been tested with a try-branch, no
regressions as far as I could see.

Guinevere Larsen (4):
  gdb: make gdbarch store a vector of frame unwinders
  gdb: add "unwinder class" to frame unwinders
  gdb: Migrate frame unwinders to use C++ classes
  GDB: introduce ability to disable frame unwinders
