  This adds some types to struct builtin_type, ensuring it contains all
the types currently used by objfile_type.

+     The upshot is:
+     - gdb's `struct type' always describes the target's
+       representation.
+     - gdb's `struct value' objects should always hold values in
+       target form.
+     - gdb's CORE_ADDR values are addresses in the unified virtual
+       address space that the assembler and linker work with.  Thus,
+       since target_read_memory takes a CORE_ADDR as an argument, it
+       can access any memory on the target, even if the processor has
+       separate code and data address spaces.
+
+     In this context, builtin_type->builtin_core_addr is a bit odd:
+     it's a target type for a value the target will never see.  It's
+     only used to hold the values of (typeless) linker symbols, which
+     are indeed in the unified virtual address space.  */
