Tom Tromey 805e1f1908 fix PR c++/16117
This patch fixes PR c++/16117.

gdb has an extension so that users can use expressions like FILE::NAME
to choose a variable of the given name from the given file.  The bug
is that this extension takes precedence over ordinary C++ expressions
of the same form.  You might think this is merely hypothetical, but
now that C++ headers commonly do not use an extension, it is more
common.

This patch fixes the bug by making two related changes.  First, it
changes gdb to prefer the ordinary C++ meaning of a symbol over the
extended meaning.  Second, it arranges for single-quoting of the
symbol to indicate a preference for the extension.

Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18.
New test case included.
