  A following patch will make the "pipe" command use the gdb::option
framework for option processing.  However, "pipe"'s only option today
is a string option, "-d DELIM", and gdb::option does not support
string options yet.

This commit adds support for string options, mapped to var_string.
For now, a string is parsed up until the first whitespace.  I imagine
that we'll need to add support for quoting so that we could do:

 (gdb) cmd -option 'some -string'

without gdb confusing the "-string" for an option.

This doesn't seem important for pipe, so I'm leaving it for another
day.

One thing I'm not happy with, is that the string data is managed as a
raw malloc-allocated char *, which means that we need to xfree it
manually.  This is because var_string settings work that way too.
Although with var_string settings we're leaking the strings at gdb
exit, that was never really a problem.  For options though, leaking is
undesirable.

I think we should tackle that for both settings and options at the
same time, so for now I'm just managing the malloced data manually.
It's a bit ugly in option_def_and_value, but at least that's hidden
from view.

For testing, this adds a new "-string" option to "maint
test-settings", and then tweaks gdb.base/options.exp to exercise it.

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

	* cli/cli-option.c (union option_value) <string>: New field.
	(struct option_def_and_value): Add ctor, move ctor, dtor and
	disable copy ctor.
	(option_def_and_value::clear_value): New.
	(parse_option, save_option_value_in_ctx, get_val_type_str)
	(add_setshow_cmds_for_options): Handle var_string.
	* cli-option.h (union option_def::var_address) <string>: New
	field.
	(struct string_option_def): New.
	* maint-test-options.c (struct test_options_opts) <string_opt>:
	New field.
	(test_options_opts::~test_options_opts): New.
	(test_options_opts::dump): Also dump "-string".
	(test_options_option_defs): Install "string.

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

	* gdb.base/options.exp (expect_none, expect_flag, expect_bool)
	(expect_integer): Adjust to expect "-string".
	(expect_string): New.
	(all_options): Expect "-string".
	(test-flag, test-boolean): Adjust to expect "-string".
	(test-string): New proc.
	(top level): Call it.

I wonder if we should file bugs for known holes like this.
On the one hand it seems nice to write down what we know.
On the other hand, maybe nobody will ever look at these.

I wonder if it makes sense to disable operator= as well.

Yeah on the later.  I don't see anyone fixing that until
we have some option that requires it, and then, whoever
implements such an option will quickly run into it for sure.

Indeed, I don't recall why I didn't use DISABLE_COPY_AND_ASSIGN.
I've done that now.

Thanks,
