gdbsupport: mark array_view::slice with [[nodiscard]]
I (almost) had a bug where I did:
buffer.slice (...)
but I meant:
buffer = buffer.slice (...)
The first one does nothing, it creates a new array_view but without
using it, it's useless. Mark the slice methods with [[nodiscard]]
(which is standard C++17) so that error would generate a warning.
I guess that many functions could be marked as nodiscard, essentially
function that is pure (doesn't have side-effects). But this one seems
particularly easy to mis-use.
