[patch v2] gdb: add completion handler for "handle"

- Subject: [patch v2] gdb: add completion handler for "handle"
- References: <201208012353.56496.vapier@gentoo.org>
The command line completion has spoiled me. Thus the lack of completion with
the "handle" command annoys me. Patch!
This does a few things:
- adds a generic signal completer
- adds a generic completer based on a specified array of strings
- adds a completion handler for the "handle" command
- adds a completion handler for the "signal" command
- improves the "signal" and "handle" help strings slightly

v2
- i'm dumb and realized that the "signal" command could easily use the
new signal completer too
2012-08-01 Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
* completer.c: Include gdb_signals.h.
(signal_completer): Define.
(string_array_completer): Define.
* completer.h (signal_completer): Add prototype.
(string_array_completer): Likewise.
* infcmd.c (_initialize_infcmd): Add a reference to "handle"
in the "string" documentation. Assign the command
completer for "signal" to handle_completer.
* infrun.c: Include completer.h.
(handle_completer): Define.
(_initialize_infrun): Declare a new local variable c. Store the
result of add_com("handle") to it. Add simple usage to
the start of the "handle" documentation. Assign the command
completer for "handle" to handle_completer.
