gdb, testsuite: adapt function_range expected name

When writing a dwarf testcase for some C++ code I wanted to use the
MACRO_AT_range which in turn uses the function_range proc in dwarf.exp
to extract the bounds of 'main'.

However, the macro failed as GDB prints the C++ 'main' with its
arguments as 'main(int, char**)' or 'main()'.

The reason for this is that in read.c::dwarf2_compute_name we call
c_type_print_args on C++ functions and append their arguments to the
function name.  This happens to all C++ functions, but is only visible
when the function doesn't have a linkage name.

An example might make this more clear.  Given the following code

  >> cat c.cpp
  int foo (int a, float b)
  {
    return 0;
  }

  int main (int argc, char **argv)
  {
    return 0;
  }

which is legal in both languages, C and C++, and compiling it with
e.g. clang or gcc will make the disassemble command look like:

  >> clang --version
  clang version 10.0.0-4ubuntu1
  ...
  >> clang -O0 -g ./c.cpp
  >> gdb -q ./a.out -ex "start"
  ...
  (gdb) disassemble main
  Dump of assembler code for function main(int, char**):
     0x0000000000401120 <+0>:     push   %rbp
     0x0000000000401121 <+1>:     mov    %rsp,%rbp
  ...
     0x0000000000401135 <+21>:    ret
  End of assembler dump.
  (gdb) disassemble foo
  Dump of assembler code for function _Z3fooif:
     0x0000000000401110 <+0>:     push   %rbp
     0x0000000000401111 <+1>:     mov    %rsp,%rbp
  ...
     0x000000000040111f <+15>:    ret
  End of assembler dump.

Note, that main is emitted with its arguments while for foo the linkage
name is being printed, as also visible in its DWARF:

  >> objdump ./a.out --dwarf=info | grep "foo" -A3 -B3
      <2b>   DW_AT_low_pc      : 0x401110
      <33>   DW_AT_high_pc     : 0x10
      <37>   DW_AT_frame_base  : 1 byte block: 56         (DW_OP_reg6 (rbp))
      <39>   DW_AT_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0x39): _Z3fooif
      <3d>   DW_AT_name        : (indirect string, offset: 0x42): foo
      <41>   DW_AT_decl_file   : 1
      <42>   DW_AT_decl_line   : 1
      <43>   DW_AT_type        : <0x9a>

Now, let's rename the C++ file and compile it as C:

  >> mv c.cpp c.c
  >> clang -O0 -g ./c.c
  >> gdb -q ./a.out -ex "start'
  ...
  (gdb) disassemble main
  Dump of assembler code for function main:
     0x0000000000401120 <+0>:     push   %rbp
     0x0000000000401121 <+1>:     mov    %rsp,%rbp
  ...
     0x0000000000401135 <+21>:    ret
  End of assembler dump.
  (gdb) disassemble foo
  Dump of assembler code for function foo:
     0x0000000000401110 <+0>:     push   %rbp
     0x0000000000401111 <+1>:     mov    %rsp,%rbp
  ...
     0x000000000040111f <+15>:    ret
  End of assembler dump.

Note, for foo we did not get a linkage name emitted in DWARF, so
it is printed by its name:

  >> objdump --dwarf=info ./a.out | grep foo -A3 -B3
      <2b>   DW_AT_low_pc      : 0x401110
      <33>   DW_AT_high_pc     : 0x10
      <37>   DW_AT_frame_base  : 1 byte block: 56         (DW_OP_reg6 (rbp))
      <39>   DW_AT_name        : (indirect string, offset: 0x37): foo
      <3d>   DW_AT_decl_file   : 1
      <3e>   DW_AT_decl_line   : 1
      <3f>   DW_AT_prototyped  : 1

To make the macro and proc work with C++ as well, an optional argument
list was added to the regex matching the function name in the
disassemble command in function_range.  This does not change any used
behavior as currently, there exists no C++ test using the proc
function_range.
