Tested x86_64-linux, with GDB 12.1. Pushed to trunk.

The recent changes to FilteringTypePrinter affect the result of
gdb.lookup_type('std::string') in StdExpAnyPrinter, causing it to always
return the std::__cxx11::basic_string specialization. This then causes a
gdb.error exception when trying to lookup the std::any manager type for
a specliaization using that string, but that manager was never
instantiated in the program. This causes FAILs when running the tests
with -D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0:

FAIL: libstdc++-prettyprinters/libfundts.cc print as
FAIL: libstdc++-prettyprinters/libfundts.cc print as

The ugly solution used in this patch is to repeat the lookup for every
type that std::string could be a typedef for, and hope it only works for
one of them.

libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:

	* python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.py (StdExpAnyPrinter): Make
	expansion of std::string in manager name more robust.
