    [gdb/symtab] Fix symbol loading performance regression
475228
475228
    The commit "[gdb/symtab] Fix language of duplicate static minimal symbol"
475228
    introduces a performance regression, when loading a cc1 executable build with
475228
    -O0 -g and gcc 7.4.0.  The performance regression, measured in 'real' time is
475228
    about 175%.
475228
475228
    The slower execution comes from the fact that the fix in symbol_set_names
475228
    makes the call to symbol_find_demangled_name unconditional.
475228
475228
    Fix this by reverting the commit, and redoing the fix as follows.
475228
475228
    Recapturing the original problem, the first time symbol_set_names is called
475228
    with gsymbol.language == lang_auto and linkage_name == "_ZL3foov", the name is
475228
    not present in the per_bfd->demangled_names_hash hash table, so
475228
    symbol_find_demangled_name is called to demangle the name, after which the
475228
    mangled/demangled pair is added to the hashtable.  The call to
475228
    symbol_find_demangled_name also sets gsymbol.language to lang_cplus.
475228
    The second time symbol_set_names is called with gsymbol.language == lang_auto
475228
    and linkage_name == "_ZL3foov", the name is present in the hash table, so the
475228
    demangled name from the hash table is used.  However, the language of the
475228
    symbol remains lang_auto.
475228
475228
    Fix this by adding a field language in struct demangled_name_entry, and using
475228
    the field in symbol_set_names to set the language of gsymbol, if necessary.
475228
475228
    Tested on x86_64-linux.
