[rfc] gdb_stdint.h.

- Subject: [rfc] gdb_stdint.h.
You want uintptr_t? I got your uintptr_t right here.
This patch creates a header in the build directory named gdb_stdint.h.
It defines all of the things which a stdint.h ought to define. It uses
the system's stdint.h if there is one, and provides anything missing,
up to and including the whole file.
There is, of course, a huge hairy chunk of m4 and portability knowledge
that you don't see in this patch. That's because it's already in
config/ and was written for GCC. I'm OK with that :-) It means it's
quite well tested at this point.
This would be enough to allow us to start using uint64_t, uintptr_t,
et cetera in the common code of GDB. Which, in my opinion, would be a
good idea. They're nice to have around.
Any comments?
