[PATCH 4/7] python: Create Python bindings for record history.

- Subject: [PATCH 4/7] python: Create Python bindings for record history.
- Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none
- References: <1477549711-2603-1-git-send-email-tim.wiederhake@intel.com>
This patch adds three new functions to the gdb module in Python:
- start_recording
- stop_recording
- current_recording
start_recording and current_recording return an object of the new type
gdb.Record, which can be used to access the recorded data.
2016-10-26 Tim Wiederhake <tim.wiederhake@intel.com>
gdb/ChangeLog
* Makefile.in (SUBDIR_PYTHON_OBS): Add python/py-record.o.
(SUBDIR_PYTHON_SRCS): Add python/py-record.c.
(py-record.o): New rule.
* python/py-record.c: New file.
* python/py-record.h: New file.
* python/python-internal.h (gdbpy_start_recording,
gdbpy_current_recording, gdpy_stop_recording,
gdbpy_initialize_record): New export.
* python/python.c (_initialize_python): Add gdbpy_initialize_record.
(python_GdbMethods): Add gdbpy_start_recording,
gdbpy_current_recording and gdbpy_stop_recording.
* target-debug.h (target_debug_print_struct_record_python_interface):
New define.
* target-delegates.c: Regenerated.
* target.c (target_record_python_interface): New function.
* target.h: Added struct record_python_interface forward declaration.
Export target_record_python_interface.
(struct target_ops): Added to_record_python_interface function.
