Indu Bhagat c953fe86fa [SFrame-V3] include: gas: libsframe: add 8-bits of func_info2 for extensibility in FDE
The existing field func_info (in the SFrame FDE) is used to convey important
information around the encoding and interpretation of the rest of the
stack trace data for the respective SFrame FDE: the SFrame FRE type,
SFrame FDE PC type, etc.

Currently there is 1 bit left for AArch64, and 2 bits for AMD64, s390x
(and other future ABIs to be supported).  Provision some additional
space now (specifically an additional 8-bits) for future needs for V3
and beyond.

Compared to V2, this now increases the size of SFrame FDE by 1 byte in
V3.  In this patch, the additional func_info2 byte is not used
functionally yet.  Hence, rather mechanical changes in libsframe, bfd
and libsframe/testsuite accompany.  We will put func_info2 into use in a
later patch by reserving 5 of these bits for SFrame FDE types.

With the addition of a new byte for additional func info (func_info2),
add a new arg to allow usecases like textual dumper to get all data
members in one API: sframe_decoder_get_funcdesc_v3.  To keep the APIs
symmetric looking, add new arg to sframe_encoder_add_funcdesc_v3 too.

Since bfd uses these APIs, carry out the mechanical change in the
respective APIs too.  And of course, the testsuite which exercises these
APIs.

libsframe is a support library for the GNU Binutils collection (currently used
by GNU ld, objdump, etc.) to read and write SFrame section data.

Note: This library is currently intended for internal use by GNU Binutils only.
Strict guarantees for ABI compatibility are not provided, and external projects
should not rely on the stability of these interfaces.
