  This introduces obstack_strndup and changes gdb to use it.

Note that obstack_strndup works like savestring, and not exactly like
xstrndup -- so perhaps it is misnamed, or perhaps it ought to be
changed.  The difference is that obstack_strndup uses the passed-in
length, while xstrndup uses strnlen to choose the length.

I think the name (of obstack_strndup) is okay, though I do think that
it might be worth noting that exactly N characters are duplicated in
obstack_strndup's comment.  I.e, it won't be shorter if the string
being copied happens to be shorter.

It took me a while to realize that the "0" in obstack_copy0 /
obstack_grow0 cause a '\0' character to be tacked onto the end.

Anyway, aside from perhaps updating the comment for obstack_strndup, it
looks good to me.

Thanks.  I've made this change & the other one you pointed out, and I'm
checking it in.
