[PATCH] Supress SIGTTOU when handling errors


[I've seen this on and off over many months on AArch64 and Arm, and am
assuming it isn't the intended behaviour. Not sure if this should be at
tcdrain or it should be done at a higher level - eg in the terminal
handling code]

Calls to error () can cause SIGTTOU to send gdb to the background.

For example, on an Arm build:
  (gdb) b main
  Breakpoint 1 at 0x10774: file /build/gdb/testsuite/../../../src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/watchpoint.c, line 174.
  (gdb) r
  Starting program: /build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/watchpoint/watchpoint

  [1]+  Stopped                 ../gdb ./outputs/gdb.base/watchpoint/watchpoint
  localhost$ fg
  ../gdb ./outputs/gdb.base/watchpoint/watchpoint
  Cannot parse expression `.L1199 4@r4'.
  warning: Probes-based dynamic linker interface failed.
  Reverting to original interface.

The SIGTTOU is raised whilst inside a syscall during the call to tcdrain.
Fix is to use scoped_ignore_sigttou to ensure SIGTTOU is blocked.

In addition fix include comments - job_control is not included via terminal.h

gdb/ChangeLog:

2019-05-15  Alan Hayward  <alan.hayward@arm.com>

	* event-top.c: Remove include comment.
	* inflow.c (class scoped_ignore_sigttou): Move from here...
	* inflow.h (class scoped_ignore_sigttou): ...to here.
	* ser-unix.c (hardwire_drain_output): Block SIGTTOU during drain.
	* top.c:  Remove include comment.
