Tom Tromey 0c1b455e29 PR symtab/16264 - support DW_AT_main_subprogram
This patch adds support for DW_AT_main_subprogram.
This is PR symtab/16264.

DW_AT_main_subprogram is used to mark a program's entry point.  GCC
can emit this, and I hope to change the Rust compiler to emit it as
well.

GDB already supports an older, pre-DWARF 4 convention adopted by
FORTRAN compilers, namely to emit DW_AT_calling_convention for the
"main" function.  However, I think this support in GDB had a small
bug, in that it seems to rely on the DW_AT_name being read before
DW_AT_calling_convention.  This patch fixes this as well.

Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 24 and the buildbot.  New test
case included.
