[gdbsupport] Add codespell section in setup.cfg
When running codespell on gdbsupport, we get:
...
$ codespell gdbsupport
gdbsupport/common-debug.h:218: invokable ==> invocable
gdbsupport/osabi.h:51: configury ==> configurable
gdbsupport/ChangeLog-2020-2021:344: ro ==> to, row, rob, rod, roe, rot
gdbsupport/ChangeLog-2020-2021:356: contaning ==> containing
gdbsupport/common.m4:19: configury ==> configurable
gdbsupport/Makefile.am:97: configury ==> configurable
gdbsupport/Makefile.in:811: configury ==> configurable
gdbsupport/event-loop.cc:84: useable ==> usable
gdbsupport/configure:15904: assigment ==> assignment
...
Some of these files we want to skip in a spell check, because they're
generated. We also want to skip ChangeLogs, we don't actively maintain those.
Add a file gdbsupport/setup.cfg with a codespell section, that skips those
files. The choice for setup.cfg (rather than say .codespellrc) comes from the
presence of gdb/setup.cfg.
That leaves invokable, configury and useable. I think configury is a common
expression in our context, and for invokable and useable I don't manage to
find out whether they really need rewriting, so I'd rather leave them alone
for now.
Add these to a file gdb/contrib/codespell-ignore-words.txt, and use the file in
gdbsupport/setup.cfg.
This makes the directory codespell clean:
...
$ codespell --config gdbsupport/setup.cfg gdbsupport
$
...
Because codespell seems to interpret filenames relative to the working
directory rather than relative to the config file, and the filename used in
gdbsupport/setup.cfg is gdb/contrib/codespell-ignore-words.txt, this simple
invocation doesn't work:
...
$ cd gdbsupport
$ codespell
...
because codespell can't find gdbsupport/gdb/contrib/codespell-ignore-words.txt.
We could fix this by using ../gdb/contrib/codespell-ignore-words.txt instead, but
likewise that breaks this invocation:
...
$ codespell --config gdbsupport/setup.cfg gdbsupport
...
I can't decide which one is worse, so I'm sticking with
gdb/contrib/codespell-ignore-words.txt for now.
