Add libiberty/concat styled concat_path function

    This commit adds concat_path function to concatenate an arbitrary number of
    path elements.  The function automatically adds an directory separator between
    two elements as needed.

    gdb/ChangeLog:

	* common/common-utils.h (endswith): New function.
	* utils.c (_concat_path, approx_path_length): New function.
	* utils.h (_concat_path): New export.
	(concat_path): New define.
