gdb: throw OPTIMIZED_OUT_ERROR rather than GENERIC_ERROR
While reviewing this patch: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-November/183227.html I spotted that the patch could be improved if we threw OPTIMIZED_OUT_ERROR rather than GENERIC_ERROR in a few places. This commit updates error_value_optimized_out and require_not_optimized_out to throw OPTIMIZED_OUT_ERROR. I ran the testsuite and saw no regressions. This doesn't really surprise me, we don't usually write code like: catch (const gdb_exception_error &ex) { (if ex.error == GENERIC_ERROR) ... else ... } There are a three places where we write something like: catch (const gdb_exception_error &ex) { (if ex.error == OPTIMIZED_OUT_ERROR) ... } In frame.c:unwind_pc, stack.c:info_frame_command_core, and value.c:value_optimized_out, but if we are hitting these cases then it's not significantly changing GDB's behaviour.
