Synthesize type and parameter names as T#n, p#n e.g. Args#1, args#1.
This is a pretty simple approach but it seems to work OK and is compatible with the old style type and parameter names emitted by old versions of gcc and when it's writing stabs+ format.

Great patch but maybe your commit message could be slightly more
informative.

Thanks, resent with a better description: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2023-February/196618.html

Good to go from my point of view.

Hi. I'm sorry about the long delay on this review.
Unfortunately in gdb you have to send pings for patches.

Does stabs even handle template parameter packs?
Also are synthesized names really necessary? If they aren't required in
DWARF perhaps they can just be nullptr.

This line looks too long. There are other minor formatting issues as
well, for example in the GNU style there is usually a space before an
open paren.

gdb doesn't generally use snprintf. There are other options, like
printing to a string and then copying it.
A patch like this needs a test case.
Also I'm curious if this works ok with the Python API.
