  I noticed that we never close the stream opened by new-ui.

This fixes it, by adding a new struct ui ctor that takes ownership of
the passed-in stream.

gdb/ChangeLog:
yyyy-mm-dd  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	* top.c (ui::ui (FILE*, FILE*, FILE*)): Use ui::init.
	(ui::ui(gdb_file_up&&)): New.
	(ui::init): New, factored out from 'ui::ui(FILE*, FILE*, FILE*)'.
	(ui::~ui): Close streams, if they're owned.
	(new_ui_command): Use ui::ui(gdb_file_up&&)) ctor.
	* top.h: Include "gdbsupport/filestuff.h".
	(struct ui): In-class-initialize some fields.
	(ui::ui(gdb_file_up&&)): Declare.
	(ui::init): Declare.

Hi Pedro,

If I am not mistaken, we never delete the UIs themselves either, so it won't
make a difference today, is that right?  They just live until the end of the
GDB process.

Still, I think this patch is fine, in that it makes things right in case we
decide to make it possible to close an existing UI some day.

Simon

We actually delete them if the tty closes.  See stdin_event_handler.

E.g., spawn an instance of KDE's console that just runs "tty" to print
the terminal device:

 $ konsole --hold -e tty&

Run a new-ui on that terminal:

 $ gdb -ex "new-ui console /dev/pts/36"
 ...
 New UI allocated

Now close the konsole window, and back in the main console, GDB prints:

 Error detected on fd 13

Some day is here.  :-)

Thanks,
