Add frame debug info addresses: * frame-base.c: New file. * frame-base.h: New file. * frame.h (struct frame_base): Add opaque declaration. (get_frame_base): Update comment. (get_frame_base_address): Declare. (get_frame_locals_address): Declare. (get_frame_args_address): Declare. (struct frame_info): Add "base" and "base_cache". Update comments on the unwinder. * frame.c: Include "frame-base.h". (get_frame_locals_address): New function. (get_frame_base_address): New function. (get_frame_args_address): New function. * findvar.c (read_var_value): Use get_frame_locals_address and get_frame_args_address. * stack.c (frame_info): Use get_frame_locals_address and get_frame_args_address. (FRAME_ARGS_ADDRESS_CORRECT): Delete conditionally defined macro, moved to "frame-base.c". * printcmd.c (print_frame_nameless_args): Ditto. * symtab.h (address_class): Update comments. * dwarf2loc.c (dwarf_expr_frame_base): Add note about get_frame_base_address. * dwarf2expr.c (execute_stack_op): Ditto. * Makefile.in (frame_base_h): Define. (frame.o): Update dependencies. (frame-base.o): Add dependencies. (SFILES): Add frame-base.c. (COMMON_OBS): Add frame-base.o.
