[gdb/cli] Don't let python colorize strip leading newlines
Consider the test-case gdb.base/async.exp. Using the executable, I run to
main, and land on a line advertised as line 26:
...
$ gdb outputs/gdb.base/async/async -ex start
Reading symbols from outputs/gdb.base/async/async...
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x4004e4: file gdb.base/async.c, line 26.
Starting program: outputs/gdb.base/async/async
Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at gdb.base/async.c:26
26 y = foo ();
...
But actually, the line turns out to be line 28:
...
$ cat -n gdb.base/async.c
...
26 y = 2;
27 z = 9;
28 y = foo ();
...
This is caused by the following: the python colorizer initializes the lexer
with default options (no second argument to get_lexer_for_filename):
...
def colorize(filename, contents):
# Don't want any errors.
try:
lexer = lexers.get_lexer_for_filename(filename)
formatter = formatters.TerminalFormatter()
return highlight(contents, lexer, formatter)
...
which include option stripnl=True, which strips leading and trailing newlines.
This causes the python colorizer to strip the two leading newlines of async.c.
Fix this by initializing the lexer with stripnl=False.
Build and reg-tested on x86_64-linux.
