[PATCH 06/10] python: Add clear_trace() to gdb.Record.

[felix.willgerodt@intel.com]

From: Felix Willgerodt <felix.willgerodt@intel.com>

This function allows to clear the trace data from python, forcing to
re-decode the trace for successive commands.

2019-05-29  Felix Willgerodt  <felix.willgerodt@intel.com>

gdb/ChangeLog:
	* py-record-btrace.c (recpy_bt_clear): New function.
	* py-record-btrace.h (recpy_bt_clear): New export.
	* py-record.c (recpy_clear): New function.
	(recpy_record_methods): Add clear_trace.

testsuite/ChangeLog:
	* gdb.python/py-record-btrace.exp: Add tests for btrace_clear.

gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
	* python.texi (gdb.Record): Document btrace_clear().
