[patch] Fix CVE-2017-9778

[Sandra Loosemore <sandra at codesourcery dot com>]

We had a request from a customer to fix CVE-2017-9778 (aka PR 
gdb/21600).  They don't really care about this particular bug, just that 
they can cross it off the list of known vulnerabilities in GDB.

This patch is based on the one attached to the issue.  I also cleaned up 
a bunch of pointless conversions between signed and unsigned 
representations of the length field, and made sure the length == 0 case 
retains its special meaning.

OK to commit?

    Fix CVE-2017-9778.
    
    GDB was failing to catch cases where a corrupt ELF or core file
    contained an invalid length value in a Dwarf debug frame FDE header.
    It was checking for buffer overflow but not cases where the length was
    negative or caused pointer wrap-around.
    
    In addition to the additional validity check, this patch cleans up the
    multiple signed/unsigned conversions on the length field so that an
    unsigned representation is used consistently throughout.
