This removes the EXTERN define from stabsread.h.  This is the only
spot that still uses this approach, and it interfered with sorting the

Tested by rebuilding.

2019-01-22  Tom Tromey  <tom@tromey.com>

	* stabsread.c (EXTERN): Do not define.
	(symnum, next_symbol_text_func, processing_gcc_compilation)
	(within_function, global_sym_chain, global_stabs)
	(previous_stab_code, this_object_header_files)
	(n_this_object_header_files)
	(n_allocated_this_object_header_files): Define.
	* stabsread.h (EXTERN): Never define.  Use "extern".
