    gdb: fix variable shadowing error in darwin-nat.c
    
    We encounter this error when building on macOS with GCC.
    
      CXX    darwin-nat.o
    /src-local/binutils-gdb/gdb/darwin-nat.c: In member function 'ptid_t darwin_nat_target::wait_1(ptid_t, target_waitstatus*)':
    /src-local/binutils-gdb/gdb/darwin-nat.c:1264:18: error: declaration of 'inf' shadows a previous local [-Werror=shadow=compatible-local]
       for (inferior *inf : all_inferiors (this))
                      ^~~
    /src-local/binutils-gdb/gdb/darwin-nat.c:1205:20: note: shadowed declaration is here
       struct inferior *inf;
                        ^~~
    
    Fix it by moving the declaration of `inf` in the specific scopes that
    need it.  I think it's clearer this way anyway, as it shows that it's
    not the same `inf` that is used in these different scopes.
    
    Thanks to Iain Sandoe for reporting this.  I did not see this error at
    first, because I compile with the default system compiler on macOS,
    which is clang.  The compiler flag we try to enable for this is
    `-Wshadow=local`, which is not one recognized by clang.  I checked to
    see if there would a version of the -Wshadow* warnings [1] we could
    enable for clang, that would catch this, but the only one that would is
    `-Wshadow` itself, and this is too invasive for us (which is why we
    enabled just -Wshadow=local in the first place).

    gdb/ChangeLog:
    
    	* darwin-nat.c (darwin_nat_target::wait_1): Move `inf`
    	declaration to narrower scopes.
