  Most versions of GCC in the wild don't support CTF debug format right
now, so, rather than attempting to compile the tests and failing each
time, this patch introduces a guard function to check if the compiler
supports CTF.  If we don't have CTF support then the CTF tests are
skipped.

This patch only updates 3 of the 4 CTF tests, the fourth will be
handled in the next patch.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* gdb.base/ctf-constvars.exp: Skip test if CTF is not supported in
	the compiler.  Clean up header comment a little.
	* gdb.base/ctf-ptype.exp: Likewise.
	* gdb.base/ctf-whatis.exp: Likewise.
	* lib/gdb.exp (compiler_supports_ctf_debug): New proc.
