libctf: CTFv4: type opening
The majority of this commit rejigs the core type table opening code for CTFv4: there are a few ancillary bits it drags in, indicated below. The internal definition of a child dict (that may not have type or string lookups performed in it until ctf_open time) used to be 'has a cth_parent_name', but since BTF doesn't have one of those at all, we add an additional check: a dict the first byte of whose strtab is not 0 must be a child. (If *either* is true, this is a child dict, which allows for the possibility of CTF dicts with non-deduplicated strtabs -- thus with leading \0's -- to exist in future.) The initial sweep through the type table in init_static_types (to size the name-table lookup hashes) also now checks for various types which indicate that this must be a CTF dict, in addition to being adjusted to cater for new CTFv4 representations of things like forwards. (At this early stage, we cannot rely on the functions in ctf-type.c to abstract over this for us.) We make some new hashtables for new namespace-like things: datasecs and type and decl tags. The main name-population loop in init_static_types_names_internal takes prefixes into account, looking for the name on the suffix type (where the name is always found). LSTRUCT handling is removed (they no longer exist); ENUM64s, enum forwards, VARs, datasecs, and type and decl tags get their names suitably populated. Some buggy code which tried to populate the name tables for cvr-quals (which are nameless) was dropped. We add an extra pass which traverses all datasecs and keeps track of which datasec each var is instantiated in (if any) in a new ctf_var_datasecs hash table. (This uses a number of type-querying functions which don't yet exist: they'll be added in the upcoming commits.) We handle the type 0 == void case by pointing the first element of ctf_txlate at a type read in named "void" (making type 0 an alias to it), or, if one doesn't exist, creating a new one (outside the type table and dtd arrays), and pointing type 0 at that. Since it is numbered 0 and not in the type table or dtd arrays, it will never be written out at serialization time, but since it is *present*, libctf consumers who expect the void type to have an integral definition rather than being a magic number will get what they expect.
