;; Display Fortran strings in backtraces.

Hi,
for Fortran it fixes displaying normal strings also in frames/backtraces:
(gdb) frame
->
The patch is simple and I do not see why it should not be this way.
For C/C++ TYPE_CODE_STRING is not used. I am not aware of Pascal but that
language is currently not really much supported in GDB anyway.
This was a part of my archer/jankratochvil/vla branch but it is not a part of
the Intel VLA patchset as it in fact is completely unrelated to "VLA".
No regressions on {x86_64,x86_64-m32,i686}-fedora22pre-linux-gnu.
Thanks,
Jan
