caused by the patch or a latent bug in ipa-icf.

- Continue ongoing tasks
~ Progress ~
* TCWG-1050, GDB 8.0 release. [7/10]
** Fix PR 19942, but looks my patch is completely wrong as I fully
misunderstood the "reference count" in GDB. Writing the v2.
** Intel btrace python interface discussion, a marathon discussion
about both the interface and implementation. Good thing is that we
agree that we need to change the interface. This takes most of my
time this week.
* TCWG-1040, Review SVE patches. [2/10]
Some discussions on avoid copying register contents to a local buffer
again, which is from my review comments to Alan's patch and my
suggested patch. Spend some time on understanding the zero
initialization of union in C++. I'll update my suggested patch.
* Update AArch32 GDB buildbot option, so we can get more reasonable
test result. [1/10]
~ Plan ~
* More remote tests for GDB 8.0 release.
* Fix PR 19942.
* One day off on Thu.
