Dodji Seketeli 25b69bb7a3 Stick qualified, pointer, reference and array types into the global scope 
In the debug info of least up to GCC 4.4.x, pointer, reference, array and
qualified types were in the global scope.  In GCC 4.8.x they can
belong to the scope of their sub-type.  The comparison code of
libabigail can thus (wrongly) consider that a qualified type described
by GCC 4.4.x debug info is different from the debug info of the *same*
qualified type emitted by GCC 4.8.x just because their scopes are
different.  The scope of qualified, pointer and reference types should
not matter anyway.  So this patch makes these composite types belong
to the global scope, irrespective of where they appear in the debug
info.  I have seen this when comparing libstdc++ from RHEL 6.5 and 7.
This is visible now that we have type canonicalizing.

	* src/abg-dwarf-reader.cc (build_class_type_and_add_to_ir): Do not
	consider qualified, pointer, reference and array types as member
	types.  Only typedef, class and enum types are.
	(build_ir_node_from_die): Stick base, pointer, reference,
	qualified and array types into the global scope.

README 

This is the Application Binary Interface Generic Analysis and
Instrumentation Library.

It aims at constructing, manipulating, serializing and de-serializing
ABI-relevant artifacts.

The set of artifacts that we are intersted is made of quantities like
types, variable, fonctions and declarations of a given library or
program.  For a given library or program this set of quantities is
called an ABI corpus.

This library aims at (among other things) providing a way to comparing
two ABI Corpuses, provide detailed information about their
differences, and help build tools to infer interesting conclusions
about these differences.

You are welcome to contribute to this project after reading the files
