    gdb: Catch exceptions if the source file is not found
    
    The source_cache::ensure method may throw an exception through
    the invocation of source_cache::get_plain_source_lines. This
    happens when the source file is not found. The expected behaviour
    of "ensure" is only returning "true" or "false" according to the
    documentation in the header file.
    
    So far, if gdb is in source layout and a file is missing, you see
    some outputs like below:
    
     ,---------------------------------------------.
     | test.c file is loaded in the source window. |
     |                                             |
     | int main()                                  |
     | ...                                         |

     | (gdb) n                                     |
     | /path/to/crt0.S: No such file or directory. |

     | (gdb) terminate called after throwing an    |
     |       instance of 'gdb_exception_error'     |
     `---------------------------------------------'
    Other issues have been encountered as well [1].
    
    The patch from Pedro [2] which is about preventing exceptions
    from crossing the "readline" mitigates the situation by not
    causing gdb crash, but still there are lots of errors printed:
    
     ,---------------------------------------------.
     | test.c file is loaded in the source window. |
     |                                             |
     | int main()                                  |
     | ...                                         |
     |---------------------------------------------|
     | Remote debugging using :1234                |
     | __start () at /path/to/crt0.S:141           |
     | /path/to/crt0.S: No such file or directory. |
     | (gdb) [pressing arrow-down key]             |
     | /path/to/crt0.S: No such file or directory. |
     | (gdb) [pressing arrow-down key]             |
     | /path/to/crt0.S: No such file or directory. |
     | (gdb) [pressing arrow-up key]               |
     | /path/to/crt0.S: No such file or directory. |
     `---------------------------------------------'
    
    With the changes of this patch, the behavior is like:
     ,---------------------------------------------.
     | initially, source window is empty because   |
     | crt0.S is not found and according to the    |
     | program counter that is the piece of code   |
     | being executed.                             |
     |                                             |
     | later, when we break at main (see commands  |
     | below), this window will be filled with the |
     | the contents of test.c file.                |
     |---------------------------------------------|

    There is no crash and the error message is completely
    gone. Maybe it is good practice that the error is
    shown inside the source window.
    
    I tested this change against gdb.base/list-missing-source.exp
    and there was no regression.

    It has also been observed in the past that the register
    values are not transferred from qemu's gdb stub, see:
    https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/toolchain/issues/226

    gdb/ChangeLog:
    
            * source-cache.c (source_cache::ensure): Surround
            get_plain_source_lines with a try/catch.
            (source_cache::get_line_charpos): Get rid of try/catch
            and only check for the return value of "ensure".
            * tui/tui-source.c (tui_source_window::set_contents):
            Simplify "nlines" calculation.
    
    gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
    
            * gdb.tui/tui-missing-src.exp: Add the "missing source
            file" test for the TUI.
