[PATCH] Don't override operator new if GDB is built with -fsanitize=address


Nowadays, if we build GDB with -fsanitize=address, we can get the asan
error below,

(gdb) quit
=================================================================

The reason for this is that we override operator new but don't override
operator delete.  This patch does the override only if the code is NOT
compiled with asan.

gdb:

2016-10-25  Yao Qi  <yao.qi@linaro.org>

	PR gdb/20716
	* common/new-op.c (__has_feature): New macro.
	Don't override operator new if asan is used.
