python extended prompt: Use os.getcwd() instead of os.getcwdu()

It seems like using os.getcwdu() here is wrong both for Python 2 and Python 3.

For Python 2, this returns a 'unicode' object, which tries to get concatenated
to a 'str' object in substitute_prompt. The implicit conversion works when the
unicode string contains no accent. When it does contain an accent though,
displaying the prompt results in the following error:

(gdb) set extended-prompt \w
...
  File "/home/simark/build/binutils-gdb-python2/gdb/data-directory/python/gdb/prompt.py", line 138, in substitute_prompt
    result += str(cmd(arg))
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe9' in position 49: ordinal not in range(128)

When using os.getcwd() instead, it works correctly. I suppose that Python does
the necessary decoding internally.

For Python 3, this method simply does not exist. It works fine with os.getcwd().
