This patch adds attribute handlers for two new attributes:
"debug_annotate_decl" and "debug_annotate_type". Both attributes accept
a single string argument, and are used to add arbitrary annotations to
debug information generated for the decls or types to which they apply.

gcc/c-family/

        * c-attribs.cc (c_common_attribute_table): Add new attributes
        debug_annotate_decl and debug_annotate_type.
        (handle_debug_annotate_decl_attribute): New.
        (handle_debug_annotate_type_attribute): Likewise.
