    gdb/riscv: Prevent buffer overflow in riscv_return_value
    
    The existing code for reading and writing the return value can
    overflow the passed in buffers in a couple of situations.  This commit
    aims to resolve these issues.
    
    The problems were detected using valgrind, here are two examples,
    first from gdb.base/structs.exp:
    
        (gdb) p/x fun9()

        ...
    
    And from gdb.base/call-sc.exp:
    
        (gdb) advance fun
        fun () at /gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/call-sc.c:41

        ...
    
    There are a couple of problems with the existing code, that are all
    related.
    
    In riscv_call_arg_struct we incorrectly rounded up the size of a
    structure argument.  This is unnecessary, and caused GDB to read too
    much data into the output buffer when extracting a struct return
    value.
    
    In fixing this it became clear that we were incorrectly assuming that
    any value being placed in a register (or read from a register) would
    always access the entire register.  This is not true, for example a
    9-byte struct on a 64-bit target places 8-bytes in one registers and
    1-byte in a second register (assuming available registers).  To handle
    this I switch from using cooked_read to cooked_read_part.
    
    Finally, when processing basic integer return value types these are
    extended to xlen sized types and then passed in registers.  We
    currently don't handle this type expansion in riscv_return_value, but
    we do in riscv_push_dummy_call.  The result is that small integer
    types (like char) result in a full xlen sized register being written
    into the output buffer, which results in buffer overflow.  To address
    this issue we now create a value of the expanded type and use this
    values contents buffer to hold the return value before casting the
    value down to the smaller expected type.
    
    This patch resolves all of the valgrind issues I have found so far,
    and causes no regressions.  Tested against RV32/64 with and without
    floating point support.
    
    gdb/ChangeLog:
    
    	* riscv-tdep.c (riscv_call_arg_struct): Don't adjust size before
    	assigning locations.
    	(riscv_return_value): Take more care not to read/write outside of
    	argument buffer.  Cast return value between the declared type and
    	the abi type.
