gdb/python/mi: create MI commands using python

This commit allows a user to create custom MI commands using Python
similarly to what is possible for Python CLI commands.

A new subclass of mi_command is defined for Python MI commands,
mi_command_py. A new file, gdb/python/py-micmd.c contains the logic
for Python MI commands.

This commit is based on work linked too from this mailing list thread:

  https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb/2021-November/049774.html

Which has also been previously posted to the mailing list here:

  https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2019-May/158010.html

And was recently reposted here:

  https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-January/185190.html

The version in this patch takes some core code from the previously
posted patches, but also has some significant differences, especially
after the feedback given here:

  https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-February/185767.html

A new MI command can be implemented in Python like this:

  class echo_args(gdb.MICommand):
      def invoke(self, args):
          return { 'args': args }

  echo_args("-echo-args")

The 'args' parameter (to the invoke method) is a list
containing (almost) all command line arguments passed to the MI
command (--thread and --frame are handled before the Python code is
called, and removed from the args list).  This list can be empty if
the MI command was passed no arguments.

When used within gdb the above command produced output like this:

  (gdb)
  -echo-args a b c
  ^done,args=["a","b","c"]
  (gdb)

The 'invoke' method of the new command must return a dictionary.  The
keys of this dictionary are then used as the field names in the mi
command output (e.g. 'args' in the above).

The values of the result returned by invoke can be dictionaries,
lists, iterators, or an object that can be converted to a string.
These are processed recursively to create the mi output.  And so, this
is valid:

  class new_command(gdb.MICommand):
      def invoke(self,args):
          return { 'result_one': { 'abc': 123, 'def': 'Hello' },
                   'result_two': [ { 'a': 1, 'b': 2 },
                                   { 'c': 3, 'd': 4 } ] }

Which produces output like:

  (gdb)
  -new-command
  ^done,result_one={abc="123",def="Hello"},result_two=[{a="1",b="2"},{c="3",d="4"}]
  (gdb)

I have required that the fields names used in mi result output must
match the regexp: "^[a-zA-Z][-_a-zA-Z0-9]*$" (without the quotes).
This restriction was never written down anywhere before, but seems
sensible to me, and we can always loosen this rule later if it proves
to be a problem.  Much harder to try and add a restriction later, once
people are already using the API.

What follows are some details about how this implementation differs
from the original patch that was posted to the mailing list.

In this patch, I have changed how the lifetime of the Python
gdb.MICommand objects is managed.  In the original patch, these object
were kept alive by an owned reference within the mi_command_py object.
As such, the Python object would not be deleted until the
mi_command_py object itself was deleted.

This caused a problem, the mi_command_py were held in the global mi
command table (in mi/mi-cmds.c), which, as a global, was not cleared
until program shutdown.  By this point the Python interpreter has
already been shutdown.  Attempting to delete the mi_command_py object
at this point was causing GDB to try and invoke Python code after
finalising the Python interpreter, and we would crash.

To work around this problem, the original patch added code in
python/python.c that would search the mi command table, and delete the
mi_command_py objects before the Python environment was finalised.

In contrast, in this patch, I have added a new global dictionary to
the gdb module, gdb._mi_commands.  We already have several such global
data stores related to pretty printers, and frame unwinders.

The MICommand objects are placed into the new gdb.mi_commands
dictionary, and it is this reference that keeps the objects alive.
When GDB's Python interpreter is shut down gdb._mi_commands is deleted,
and any MICommand objects within it are deleted at this point.

This change avoids having to make the mi_cmd_table global, and walk
over it from within GDB's python related code.

This patch handles command redefinition entirely within GDB's python
code, though this does impose one small restriction which is not
present in the original code (detailed below), I don't think this is a
big issue.  However, the original patch relied on being able to
finish executing the mi_command::do_invoke member function after the
mi_command object had been deleted.  Though continuing to execute a
member function after an object is deleted is well defined, it is
also (IMHO) risky, its too easy for someone to later add a use of the
object without realising that the object might sometimes, have been
deleted.  The new patch avoids this issue.

The one restriction that is added to avoid this, is that an MICommand
object can't be reinitialised with a different command name, so:

  (gdb) python cmd = MyMICommand("-abc")
  (gdb) python cmd.__init__("-def")
  can't reinitialize object with a different command name

This feels like a pretty weird edge case, and I'm happy to live with
this restriction.

I have also changed how the memory is managed for the command name.
In the most recently posted patch series, the command name is moved
into a subclass of mi_command, the python mi_command_py, which
inherits from mi_command is then free to use a smart pointer to manage
the memory for the name.

In this patch, I leave the mi_command class unchanged, and instead
hold the memory for the name within the Python object, as the lifetime
of the Python object always exceeds the c++ object stored in the
mi_cmd_table.  This adds a little more complexity in py-micmd.c, but
leaves the mi_command class nice and simple.

Next, this patch adds some extra functionality, there's a
MICommand.name read-only attribute containing the name of the command,
and a read-write MICommand.installed attribute that can be used to
install (make the command available for use) and uninstall (remove the
command from the mi_cmd_table so it can't be used) the command.  This
attribute will be automatically updated if a second command replaces
an earlier command.

This patch adds additional error handling, and makes more use the
gdbpy_handle_exception function.

@cindex commands in python, GDB/MI
@cindex python commands, GDB/MI
It is possible to add @sc{GDB/MI} (@pxref{GDB/MI}) commands
implemented in Python. A @sc{GDB/MI} command is implemented using an
instance of the @code{gdb.MICommand} class, most commonly using a
subclass.
@defun MICommand.__init__ (name)
The object initializer for @code{MICommand} registers the new command
with @value{GDBN}. This initializer is normally invoked from the
subclass' own @code{__init__} method.
@var{name} is the name of the command. It must be a valid name of a
@sc{GDB/MI} command, and in particular must start with a hyphen
(@code{-}). Reusing the name of a built-in @sc{GDB/MI} is not
allowed, and a @code{RuntimeError} will be raised. Using the name
of an @sc{GDB/MI} command previously defined in Python is allowed, the
previous command will be replaced with the new command.
@end defun
@defun MICommand.invoke (arguments)
This method is called by @value{GDBN} when the new MI command is
invoked.
@var{arguments} is a list of strings. Note, that @code{--thread}
and @code{--frame} arguments are handled by @value{GDBN} itself therefore
they do not show up in @code{arguments}.
If this method raises an exception, then it is turned into a
@sc{GDB/MI} @code{^error} response. Only @code{gdb.GdbError}
exceptions (or its sub-classes) should be used for reporting errors to
users, any other exception type is treated as a failure of the
@code{invoke} method, and the exception will be printed to the error
stream according to the @kbd{set python print-stack} setting
(@pxref{set_python_print_stack,,@kbd{set python print-stack}}).
If this method returns @code{None}, then the @sc{GDB/MI} command will
return a @code{^done} response with no additional values.
Otherwise, the return value must be a dictionary, which is converted
to a @sc{GDB/MI} @var{result-record} (@pxref{GDB/MI Output Syntax}).
The keys of this dictionary must be strings, and are used as
@var{variable} names in the @var{result-record}, these strings must
comply with the naming rules detailed below. The values of this
dictionary are recursively handled as follows:
@itemize
@item
If the value is Python sequence or iterator, it is converted to
@sc{GDB/MI} @var{list} with elements converted recursively.
@item
If the value is Python dictionary, it is converted to
@sc{GDB/MI} @var{tuple}. Keys in that dictionary must be strings,
which comply with the @var{variable} naming rules detailed below.
Values are converted recursively.
@item
Otherwise, value is first converted to a Python string using
@code{str ()} and then converted to @sc{GDB/MI} @var{const}.
@end itemize
The strings used for @var{variable} names in the @sc{GDB/MI} output
must follow the following rules; the string must be at least one
character long, the first character must be in the set
@code{[a-zA-Z]}, while every subsequent character must be in the set
@code{[-_a-zA-Z0-9]}.
@end defun
An instance of @code{MICommand} has the following attributes:
@defvar MICommand.name
A string, the name of this @sc{GDB/MI} command, as was passed to the
@code{__init__} method. This attribute is read-only.
@end defvar
@defvar MICommand.installed
A boolean value indicating if this command is installed ready for a
user to call from the command line. Commands are automatically
installed when they are instantiated, after which this attribute will
be @code{True}.
If later, a new command is created with the same name, then the
original command will become uninstalled, and this attribute will be
@code{False}.
This attribute is read-write, setting this attribute to @code{False}
will uninstall the command, removing it from the set of available
commands. Setting this attribute to @code{True} will install the
command for use. If there is already a Python command with this name
installed, the currently installed command will be uninstalled, and
this command installed in its place.
@end defvar
The following code snippet shows how a two trivial MI command can be
implemented in Python:
@smallexample
class MIEcho(gdb.MICommand):
"""Echo arguments passed to the command."""
def __init__(self, name, mode):
self._mode = mode
super(MIEcho, self).__init__(name)
def invoke(self, argv):
if self._mode == 'dict':
return @{ 'dict': @{ 'argv' : argv @} @}
elif self._mode == 'list':
return @{ 'list': argv @}
else:
return @{ 'string': ", ".join(argv) @}
MIEcho("-echo-dict", "dict")
MIEcho("-echo-list", "list")
MIEcho("-echo-string", "string")
@end smallexample
The last three lines instantiate the class three times, creating three
new @sc{GDB/MI} commands @code{-echo-dict}, @code{-echo-list}, and
@code{-echo-string}. Each time a subclass of @code{gdb.MICommand} is
instantiated, the new command is automatically registered with
@value{GDBN}.
Depending on how the Python code is read into @value{GDBN}, you may
need to import the @code{gdb} module explicitly.
The following example shows a @value{GDBN} session in which the above
commands have been added:
@smallexample
(@value{GDBP})
-echo-dict abc def ghi
^done,dict=@{argv=["abc","def","ghi"]@}
(@value{GDBP})
-echo-list abc def ghi
^done,list=["abc","def","ghi"]
(@value{GDBP})
-echo-string abc def ghi
^done,string="abc, def, ghi"
