Tom Tromey aab2ac34d7 Avoid excessive CU expansion on failed matches
PR symtab/31010 points out that something like "ptype INT" will expand
all CUs in a typical program.  The OP further points out that the
original patch for PR symtab/30520:

    https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2024-January/205924.html

... did solve the problem, but the patch changed after (my) review and
reintroduced the bug.

In cooked_index_functions::expand_symtabs_matching, the final
component of a split name is compared with the entry's name using the
usual method of calling get_symbol_name_matcher.

This code iterates over languages and tries to split the original name
according to each style.  But, the Ada splitter uses the decoded name
-- "int".  This causes every C or C++ CU to be expanded.

Clearly this is wrong.  And, it seems to me that looping over
languages and trying to guess the splitting style for the input text
is probably bad.  However, fixing the problem is not so easy (again
due to Ada).  I've filed a follow-up bug, PR symtab/32733, for this.

Meanwhile, this patch changes the code to be closer to the
originally-submitted patch.  This works because the comparison is now
done between the full name and the "lookup_name_without_params"
object, which is a less adulterated variant of the original input.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
