When CONFIG_PRINTK_CALLER is set, struct printk_log contains an
additional member caller_id. This affects the offset of the log text.
Account for this by using the type information from gdb to determine all
the offsets instead of using hardcoded values.
This fixes following error:
(gdb) lx-dmesg
Python Exception <class 'ValueError'> embedded null character:
Error occurred in Python command: embedded null character
The read_u* utility functions now take an offset argument to make them
easier to use.

Change the read_u16 function so it accepts both 'str' and 'byte' as type
for the arguments.
When calling read_memory() from gdb API, depending on if it was built
with 2.7 or 3.X, the format used to return the data will differ ( 'str'
for 2.7, and 'byte' for 3.X ).
Add a function read_memoryview() to be able to get a 'memoryview' object
back from read_memory() both with python 2.7 and 3.X .
Tested with python 3.4 and 2.7
Tested with gdb 7.7

If we attempt to read a value that is not available to GDB, an exception
is raised. Most of the time, this is a good thing; however on occasion
we will want to be able to determine if a symbol is available.
By catching the exception to simply return None, we can determine if we
tried to read an invalid value, without the exception taking our
execution context away from us

I tried to use these scripts in an ubuntu 14.04 host (gdb 7.7 compiled
against python 3.3) but there were several errors.
I believe this patch fixes these issues so that the commands now work (I
tested lx-symbols, lx-dmesg, lx-lsmod).
Main issues that needed to be resolved:
* In python 2 iterators have a "next()" method. In python 3 it is
__next__() instead (so let's just add both).
* In older python versions there was an implicit conversion
in object.__format__() (used when an object is in string.format())
where it was converting the object to str first and then
calling str's __format__(). This has now been removed so
we must explicitly convert to str the objects for which
we need to keep this behavior.
* In dmesg.py: in python 3 log_buf is now a "memoryview" object
which needs to be converted to a string in order to use string
methods like "splitlines()". Luckily memoryview exists in
python 2.7.6 as well, so we can convert log_buf to memoryview
and use the same code in both python 2 and python 3.
This version of the patch has now been tested with gdb 7.7 and both python
3.4 and python 2.7.6 (I think asking for at least python 2.7.6 is a
reasonable requirement instead of complicating the code with version
checks etc).

Provide an internal helper with container_of semantics. As type lookups
are very slow in gdb-python and we need a type "long" for this, cache the
reference to this type object. Then export the helper also as a
convenience function form use at the gdb command line.
