Subject: [PATCH 07/48] PowerPC and aarch64: Fix reverse stepping failure

When running GDB's testsuite on aarch64-linux/Ubuntu 20.04 (also spotted on
the ppc backend), there are failures in gdb.reverse/solib-precsave.exp and
gdb.reverse/solib-reverse.exp.

The failure happens around the following code:

38  b[1] = shr2(17);          /* middle part two */
40  b[0] = 6;   b[1] = 9;     /* generic statement, end part two */
42  shr1 ("message 1\n");     /* shr1 one */

Normal execution:

- step from line 38 will land on line 40.
- step from line 40 will land on line 42.

Reverse execution:
- step from line 42 will land on line 40.
- step from line 40 will land on line 40.
- step from line 40 will land on line 38.

The problem here is that line 40 contains two contiguous but distinct
PC ranges in the line table, like so:

Line 40 - [0x7ec ~ 0x7f4]
Line 40 - [0x7f4 ~ 0x7fc]

The two distinct ranges are generated because GCC started outputting source
column information, which GDB doesn't take into account at the moment.

When stepping forward from line 40, we skip both of these ranges and land on
line 42. When stepping backward from line 42, we stop at the start PC of the
second (or first, going backwards) range of line 40.

Since we've reached ecs->event_thread->control.step_range_start, we stop
stepping backwards.

The above issues were fixed by introducing a new function that looks for
adjacent PC ranges for the same line, until we notice a line change. Then
we take that as the start PC of the range.  The new start PC for the range
is used for the control.step_range_start when setting up a step range.

The test case gdb.reverse/map-to-same-line.exp is added to test the fix
for the above reverse step issues.

Patch has been tested on PowerPC, X86 and AArch64 with no regressions.
