testsuite: expect possible pagination when starting gdb
When gdb starts, the lines that appear before the first prompt may get paginated if the terminal in which the tests are ran is too small (in terms of rows). These lines include the welcome/license message and possibly more, such as "Reading symbols from...". Pagination is disabled right after gdb is started (with "set height 0"), but this output happens before we are able to set height. If these lines get paginated, gdb waits for the user to press enter and the test harness waits for gdb to print its prompt, resulting in a deadlock. My first idea was to launch gdb with --quiet. However, some lines are still printed ("Reading symbols from...", some more stuff when attaching with --pid, etc). The proposed solution simply expects that pagination can occur after starting gdb. If this is the case, it sends a "\n" and loops. gdb/testsuite/Changelog: * lib/gdb.exp (default_gdb_start): After starting gdb, loop as long as we get pagination notifications.
