[PATCH 09/11] [PR gdb/14441] gdb: gdbtypes: add rvalue references to overloading resolution


This patch introduces changes to rank_one_type() dealing with ranking an rvalue
reference type when selecting a best viable function from a set of candidate
functions. The 3 new added rules for rvalue references are:

1) An rvalue argument cannot be bound to a non-const lvalue reference parameter
and an lvalue argument cannot be bound to an rvalue reference parameter.
[C++11 13.3.3.1.4p3]

2) If a conversion to one type of reference is an identity conversion, and a
conversion to the second type of reference is a non-identity conversion, choose
the first type. [C++11 13.3.3.2p3]

3) An rvalue should be first tried to bind to an rvalue reference, and then to
an lvalue reference. [C++11 13.3.3.2p3]

4) An lvalue reference to a function gets higher priority than an rvalue
reference to a function. [C++11 13.3.3.2p3]

        * gdb/gdbtypes.c (rank_one_type): Implement overloading
        resolution rules regarding rvalue references.
