This series adds support for $_ada_exception -- a convenience variable
that holds the address of the exception currently being thrown by the
Ada runtime. This is analogous to the existing $_exception variable
that is used for C++.
Earlier, I checked in a patch to change how Ada exception catchpoints
handle the case where an exception symbol occurs in multiple objfiles.
This same problem affected $_ada_exception. After one other failed
attempt to fix the problem, I ended up trying to fix the copy
relocation problem in a more principled way. That is patch #2 here.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 29.
