gdb: work around negative DW_AT_data_member_location GCC 11 bug
g++ 11.1.0 has a bug where it will emit a negative
DW_AT_data_member_location in some cases:
$ cat test.cpp
#include <memory>
int
main()
{
std::unique_ptr<int> ptr;
}
$ g++ -g test.cpp
$ llvm-dwarfdump -F a.out
...
0x00000964: DW_TAG_member
DW_AT_name [DW_FORM_strp] ("_M_head_impl")
DW_AT_decl_file [DW_FORM_data1] ("/usr/include/c++/11.1.0/tuple")
DW_AT_decl_line [DW_FORM_data1] (125)
DW_AT_decl_column [DW_FORM_data1] (0x27)
DW_AT_type [DW_FORM_ref4] (0x0000067a "default_delete<int>")
DW_AT_data_member_location [DW_FORM_sdata] (-1)
...
This leads to a GDB crash (when built with ASan, otherwise probably
garbage results), since it tries to read just before (to the left, in
ASan speak) of the value's buffer:

Since there are some binaries with this in the wild, I think it would be
useful for GDB to work around this. I did the obvious simple thing, if
the DW_AT_data_member_location's value is -1, replace it with 0. I
added a producer check to only apply this fixup for GCC 11. The idea is
that if some other compiler ever uses a DW_AT_data_member_location value
of -1 by mistake, we don't know (before analyzing the bug at least) if
they did mean 0 or some other value. So I wouldn't want to apply the
fixup in that case.
