[RFA] gdbtypes.h: Add "calling_convention" field to struct main_type

[Corinna Vinschen]

Hi,

the below patch prepares the grounds for the bigger calling convention
patch still to follow.

The basic idea and the bigger picture of that patch has been published
on the GDB mailing list on 2003-08-22:

  http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb/2003-08/msg00252.html

Several changes to GDB have outdated parts of the proposal, namely Andrew
Cagney's invention of EXTRACT_RETURN_VALUE and Randolf Chung's change to
give a struct value * to PUSH_DUMMY_CALL instead of just the function
address, but the general approach is still valid and has to be implemented
to get multiple ABIs working in an automated fashion.  The necessary changes
to gcc are also WIP.


This tiny little patch attached to this posting just adds the
calling_convention field to struct main_type and an appropriate macro
to access it.

Ok to apply?

	* gdbtypes.h (struct_main_type): Add member calling_convention.
