Use std::sort instead of qsort in minsyms.c

This has better typesafety and is also marginally faster (either
due to inlining or because it avoids indirection through a
function pointer).

Note that in this change:
-       return 1;               /* fn1 has no name, so it is "less".  */
+       return true;            /* fn1 has no name, so it is "less".  */
       else if (name1)          /* fn2 has no name, so it is "less".  */
-       return -1;
+       return false;
I am fairly sure the old code was wrong (ie. code didn't match the
comment and the comment seemed correct), so I fixed it.

gdb/ChangeLog:

2019-09-28  Christian Biesinger  <cbiesinger@google.com>

	* minsyms.c (compare_minimal_symbols): Rename to...
	(minimal_symbol_is_less_than): ...this, and adjust to STL
	conventions (return bool, take arguments as references)
	(minimal_symbol_reader::install): Call std::sort instead
	of qsort.
