[PATCHv2 0/5] refactoring towards Python MI command API

[Andrew Burgess]

I originally posted these patches here:

  https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-November/183231.html

but as that was buried in the middle of a general discussion thread I
was worried the series might not have been noticed.

The work in those patches is not my own, but is based on Jan's work
which has been previously posted here:

  https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2019-May/158010.html

This series is not all of Jan's work, his series goes all of the way
to adding a Python API for creating MI commands.  This series is just
the refactoring ahead of the final Python changes, but I think these
changes stand on their own, so would like to have them considered for
acceptance.  We can then rebase the remained of Jan's work on top of
master once this series lands.

Pedro had some feedback on Jan's V3 series, but only one of the
feedback items applies to the work I'm submitting here:

  https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2019-June/158431.html

I've gone thought that email and I believe that all of the issues
listed have been addressed.

Changes since _my_ V1 series:

  - rebased onto current upstream master, and

  - ensured that all of Pedro's feedback has been addressed.

Any additional feedback would be welcome.

Thanks,
Andrew
