Subject: gdb/python: add gdb.host_charset function
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=61671e97927dcc1b302bd01fd59bc61c27972839;p=binutils-gdb.git

gdb/python: add gdb.host_charset function

We already have gdb.target_charset and gdb.target_wide_charset.  This
commit adds gdb.host_charset along the same lines.
