Just recording the fact that the following patch...

    | commit 0bf64e2236bd6a2aacb978e5a7fa0a5b43567665
    | Subject: (Ada) do not suppress all symbols in the STRUCT_DOMAIN

    | Subject: (Ada) do not suppress all symbols in the STRUCT_DOMAIN

cannot be contributed upstream, because it touches a function
(ada_suppress_symbol_printing) which is specific to the AdaCore
version of GDB.

This is from memory, but I believe we tried to contribute this function
(combined with its companion function called is_suppressed_name), and
got feedback that we should be doing it differently, relying on DWARF
rather than GNAT encodings to determine whether symbols should be
displayed or not.

I will annotate the commit accordingly.
