This testcase compiles the same program and library differently
multiple times using the same file names. Make them unique, to make
it easier to debug test problems.

Ref: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2016-03/msg00023.html
GDB currently fails to fetch the list of already-registered JIT
modules on attach.
Nothing is calling jit_inferior_init, which is what is responsible for
walking the JIT object list at init time.
Despite the misleading naming, jit_inferior_created_hook ->
jit_inferior_init is only called when the inferior execs.
This regressed with the fix for PR gdb/13431 (03bef283c2):
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-02/msg00023.html which
removed the inferior_created (jit_inferior_created_observer)
observer.
Adding an inferior_created observer back fixes the issue.
In turn, this exposes a bug in jit_breakpoint_re_set_internal as well,
which is returning the wrong result when we already have the
breakpoint at the right address.

33b4777ca1 btrace, frame: fix crash in get_frame_type
a038fa3e14 stack: check frame_unwind_caller_id
2f3ef606b9 frame: add skip_tailcall_frames
In skip_artificial_frames we repeatedly call get_prev_frame_always until we get
a non-inline and non-tailcall frame assuming that there must be such a frame
eventually.
For record targets, however, we may have a frame chain that consists only of
artificial frames. This leads to a crash in get_frame_type when dereferencing a
NULL frame pointer.
Change skip_artificial_frames and skip_tailcall_frames to return NULL in such a
case and modify each caller to cope with a NULL return.
In frame_unwind_caller_pc and frame_unwind_caller_arch, we simply assert that
the returned value is not NULL. Their caller was supposed to check
frame_unwind_caller_id before calling those functions.
In other cases, we thrown an error.
In infcmd further move the skip_tailcall_frames call to the forward-stepping
case since we don't need a frame for reverse execution and we don't want to fail
because of that. Reverse-finish does make sense for a tailcall frame.

If /proc is not mounted, GDB fails an assertion in find_new_threads_once:

A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
That was supposed to catch misuses of td_ta_thr_iter, which is unsafe
for live debugging. However, if /proc is not mounted, we still
fallback to using it.
I didn't bother with a warning, because GDB already prints several
others related to failing to open /proc files.

info->td_ta_thr_iter_p NULL iff debugging a live process and we

info->td_ta_thr_iter_p instead of checking whether the target has

On GNU/Linux archs that support displaced stepping, if /proc is not
mounted, GDB gets stuck not able to step past breakpoints:
(gdb) c
Continuing.
dl_main (phdr=<optimized out>, phnum=<optimized out>, user_entry=<optimized out>, auxv=<optimized out>) at rtld.c:2163
2163 LIBC_PROBE (init_complete, 2, LM_ID_BASE, r);

Cannot find AT_ENTRY auxiliary vector entry.
(gdb)
That's because GDB can't figure out where the scratch pad is.
This is a regression introduced by the earlier changes to make the
Linux native target always work in non-stop mode.
This commit makes GDB detect the case and fallback to stepping over
breakpoints in-line.
