Candidate patch

Here is a candidate patch that fixes this issue by allowing the user to omit
the "(anonymous namespace)::" prefix when referencing symbols that are defined
inside an anonymous namespace.  Tab completion is fixed accordingly, e.g. by
allowing one to tab-complete "pass_exp" into "pass_expand" even though
pass_expand is actually (anonymous namespace)::pass_expand.  This should work
in breakpoint and expression context.

So the patch enables you to do

(gdb) break pass_exp<TAB>::execu<TAB>

to break on (anonymous namespace)::pass_expand::execute.
