  From: "Ijaz, Abdul B" <abdul.b.ijaz@intel.com>

This change skips trampoline functions for the return command
when the option 'skip-trampoline-functions' is set to 'on'.  Before this
change, GDB processes trampoline functions indicated by the compiler with
DIE "DW_AT_trampoline" for the return command and stops at the trampoline
functions.  For better user experience, all such frames can
be skipped and hidden from the user.

In this example the IFX compiler emits "DW_AT_trampoline" tag for the 'first'
and 'second' trampoline functions like following:

function second (x, y) result(z)
  integer, intent(in) :: x, y
  integer :: z
  z = x * y ! breakpt-return
end function second

function first (num1, num2) result(total)
  integer, intent(in) :: num1, num2
  integer  :: total
  total = second (num1 + 4, num2 * 3) ! first-breakpt
  total = total + 30
end function first

                DW_AT_trampoline        ("first_")

Before this change, the return command output looks like:

'''
(gdb) return
Make second return now? (y or n) y
\#0  0x0000000000405209 in second_.t74p.t75p () at test.f90:12
12      end function first
'''

After this change:

'''
(gdb) return
Make second return now? (y or n) y
\#0  0x00000000004051e3 in first (num1=16, num2=3) at test.f90:10
10        total = second (num1 + 4, num2 * 3) ! first-breakpt
'''

The test gdb.fortran/func-trampoline.exp is updated for testing this change.
