>     Avoid crash when calling warning too early
>     
>     I noticed that if you pass the name of an existing file (not a
>     directory) as the argument to --data-directory, gdb will crash:
>     
>         $ ./gdb -nx  --data-directory  ./gdb
>         ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/target.c:590:56: runtime error: member call
> on null pointer of type 'struct target_ops'
>     
>     This was later reported as PR gdb/23838.
>     
>     This happens because warning ends up calling
>     target_supports_terminal_ours, which calls current_top_target, which
>     returns nullptr this early.
>     
>     This fixes the problem by handling this case specially in
>     target_supports_terminal_ours.  I also changed
>     target_supports_terminal_ours to return bool.
