[PULL 28/28] gdbstub: Fix single-step issue by confirming 'vContSupported+' feature to gdb

[Alex Bennée]

From: Changbin Du <address@hidden>

Recently when debugging an arm32 system on qemu, I found sometimes the
single-step command (stepi) is not working. This can be reproduced by
below steps:
 1) start qemu-system-arm -s -S .. and wait for gdb connection.
 2) start gdb and connect to qemu. In my case, gdb gets a wrong value
    (0x60) for PC, which is an another bug.
 3) After connected, type 'stepi' and expect it will stop at next ins.

But, it has never stopped. This because:
 1) We doesn't report ‘vContSupported’ feature to gdb explicitly and gdb
    think we do not support it. In this case, gdb use a software breakpoint
    to emulate single-step.
 2) Since gdb gets a wrong initial value of PC, then gdb inserts a
    breakpoint to wrong place (PC+4).

Not only for the arm target, Philippe has also encountered this on MIPS.
Probably gdb has different assumption for different architectures.

Since we do support ‘vContSupported’ query command, so let's tell gdb that
we support it.

Before this change, gdb send below 'Z0' packet to implement single-step:
gdb_handle_packet: Z0,4,4

After this change, gdb send "vCont;s.." which is expected:
gdb_handle_packet: vCont?
put_packet: vCont;c;C;s;S
gdb_handle_packet: vCont;s:p1.1;c:p1.-1
