Fix bit-/byte-offset mismatch in parameter to read_value_memory
The function read_value_memory accepts a parameter embedded_offset and expects it to represent the byte offset into the given value. However, the only invocation with a possibly non-zero embedded_offset happens in read_pieced_value, where a bit offset is passed instead. Adjust the implementation of read_value_memory to meet the caller's expectation. This implicitly fixes the invocation in read_pieced_value. gdb/ChangeLog: * valops.c (read_value_memory): Change embedded_offset to represent a bit offset instead of a byte offset. * value.h (read_value_memory): Adjust comment.
