[PATCH 1/3] Fix leak in mdebugread.c

[Pedro Alves <palves at redhat dot com>]

Coverity points out that all the "continue;" statements in the switch
case in parse_partial_symbols leak STABSTRING.  This is because we
only release STABSTRING at the end of the scope, with:

     	     	  if (stabstring
		    && stabstring != debug_info->ss + fh->issBase + sh.iss)
		  xfree (stabstring);

but that bit of code is skipped if a case in the switch statement ends
with "continue".

Fix this by using gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr to manage the heap-allocated
version of 'stabsstring'.

I don't know how to test this.

gdb/ChangeLog:
yyyy-mm-dd  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	* mdebugread.c (parse_partial_symbols): Use
	gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr to manage heap-allocated 'stabsstring'.
