Introduce a command line option to enable statement frontiers, enabled
by default in optimized builds with DWARF2+ debug information.

This patch depends on an earlier patch that completed the
infrastructure for debug markers, and on another patch that turns -g
into a negatable option prefix.

gcc/ChangeLog

        * common.opt (gstatement-frontiers): New, setting
        debug_nonbind_markers_p.
        * rtl.h (MAY_HAVE_DEBUG_MARKER_INSNS): Activate.
        * toplev.c (process_options): Autodetect value for debug statement
        frontiers option.
        * tree.h (MAY_HAVE_DEBUG_MARKER_STMTS): Activate.
        * doc/invoke.texi (gstatement-frontiers, gno-statement-frontiers): New.

+This option causes GCC to create markers in the internal representation
+at the beginning of statements, and to keep them roughly in place
+throughout compilation, using them to guide the output of @code{is_stmt}
+markers in the line number table.  This is enabled by default when
+compiling with optimization (@option{-Os}, @option{-O}, @option{-O2},
+@dots{}), and outputting DWARF 2 debug information at the normal level.
