    [gdb/symtab] Fix gdb-index writing for .debug_types
    
    With test-case gdb.ada/same_enum.exp and target board dwarf4-gdb-index we run
    into:
    ...
    (gdb) print red^M
    No definition of "red" in current context.^M
    (gdb) FAIL: gdb.ada/same_enum.exp: print red
    ...
    
    [ This is a regression since commit 844a72efbce ("Simplify gdb_index writing"),
    so this is broken in gdb 12 and 13. ]
    
    The easiest way to see what's going wrong is with readelf.  We have in section
    .gdb_index:
    ...
    [7194] pck__red:
            2 [static, variable]
            3 [static, variable]
    ...
    which points to the CUs 2 and 3 in the CU list (shown using "2" and "3"), but
    should be pointing to the TUs 2 and 3 in the TU list (shown using "T2" and
    "T3").
    
    Fix this by removing the counter / types_counter distinction in
    write_gdbindex, such that we get the expected:
    ...
    [7194] pck__red:
            T2 [static, variable]
            T3 [static, variable]
    ...
    
    [ While reading write_gdbindex I noticed a few oddities related to dwz
    handling, I've filed PR30829 about this. ]
    
    Tested on x86_64-linux.
