[Bug rust/34344] New: Update for changes to Rust unsized handling

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34344

            Bug ID: 34344
           Summary: Update for changes to Rust unsized handling
           Product: gdb
           Version: unknown
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: rust
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: tromey at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

Debuginfo for unsized types in Rust was changed.
See

https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/153238

This causes some gdb test failures which you can see using nightly.

prentzel. grep ^FAIL gdb.sum
FAIL: gdb.rust/unsized2.exp: print *reference
FAIL: gdb.rust/unsized2.exp: print beta
FAIL: gdb.rust/unsized2.exp: print nested_unsized_struct
FAIL: gdb.rust/unsized2.exp: print unsized_struct
FAIL: gdb.rust/unsized2.exp: print unsized_struct.rest[1]


Since IIUC the new output is better (the old approach had
some cases that weren't handled properly) gdb should adapt.
I don't know if it's worth trying to check the rustc version or not.
