Avoid some copying in psymtab.c
I noticed that psymtab.c was always copying the search string in psymtab_search_name, even when it wasn't necessary. This patch removes this function in favor of using the make_ignore_params feature of lookup_name_info. Once I had done that, I noticed that lookup_partial_symbol was creating a lookup_name_info. However, this function called in loops, causing even more excess allocation. This patch further fixes this by hosting the creation of the lookup_name_info into the callers. gdb/ChangeLog 2020-04-01 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> * psymtab.c (psymtab_search_name): Remove function. (psym_lookup_symbol): Create search name and lookup name here. (lookup_partial_symbol): Remove "name" parameter; add lookup_name. (psym_expand_symtabs_for_function): Update.
