[rfa] teach linespec about nested classes


Here's the last of my namespace/nested class patches.  It modifies
decode_compound in linespec.c to change the order in which it does
stuff.  Specifically, what it tries now is: given a name A::B::C,
it says:

* Is A a class?  If so, look for a method B in it.

* If A isn't a class, is A::B a class?  If so, look for a method C in
  it.

* Otherwise, just look up A::B::C.

This is, of course, screwy - the last thing we want to do is look for
a method named 'B' in a class named 'A'.  In particular, this fails if
we have a class A with a nested class A::B.

This patch remedies the situation: rather than looping through all the
double-colons and stopping at each stage to ask if the symbol there is
a class, it only asks that question when it reaches the last set of
double-colons.  So it's pretty mechanical - basically, all I did was
move the code for looking up a class outside of the loop looking for
double-colons, and then reindent.  While I was at it, I deleted some
dead code; if this patch is approved, I'll commit that part of the
patch first before committing the rest of it.

This patch actually isn't on carlton_dictionary-branch, so it hasn't
gotten quite as much testing as my other recent patches.  The reason
for that is that the way I handled this issue on the branch is more
complex, involves more linespec refactoring, and has known bugs
associated to it.  I like this simpler patch a lot better.

Tested on i686-pc-linux-gnu, with 5 different GCC/debug format
combinations.  No regressions on any of them; the new test passes on
all of them.  OK to commit?

	* linespec.c (decode_compound): Remove commented-out code.  Only
	look for a class symbol when considering all but the rightmost
	component.

-     Some versions of the HP ANSI C++ compiler (as also possibly
-     other compilers) generate class/function/member names with
-     embedded double-colons if they are inside namespaces. To
-     handle this, we loop a few times, considering larger and
-     larger prefixes of the string as though they were single
-     symbols.  So, if the initially supplied string is
-     A::B::C::D::foo, we have to look up "A", then "A::B",
-     then "A::B::C", then "A::B::C::D", and finally
-     "A::B::C::D::foo" as single, monolithic symbols, because
-     A, B, C or D may be namespaces.
-
-     Note that namespaces can nest only inside other
-     namespaces, and not inside classes.  So we need only
-     consider *prefixes* of the string; there is no need to look up
-     "B::C" separately as a symbol in the previous example.  */
