The range-stepping tests fail with "maint set target-non-stop on" mode
because exec_cmd_expect_vCont_count doesn't know that in non-stop
mode, vCont's reply is simply "OK".

* lib/range-stepping-support.exp (exec_cmd_expect_vCont_count):
Handle non-stop mode vCont replies.
Nowadays, in the range-stepping tests, we check not only the number of
vCont;r packets but also the number of vCont;s packets, because we think
the remote target which can do range stepping must support single step.
However, if we turn displaced stepping on, the remote target (GDBserver)
can do range stepping, and support single step, but GDB may decide to
resume instructions in the scratchpad rather than single step them one
by one for displaced stepping. For example, when aarch64 GDB debugs
arm linux program with aarch64 GDBserver, GDBserver supports both range
stepping and single step, but GDB (with the gdbarch for arm-linux)
decides resume instructions in the scratchpad, so in the RSP traffic,
there is no vCont;s packet at all, and some range-stepping.exp tests
fail,
FAIL: gdb.base/range-stepping.exp: multi insns: next: vCont;s=1 vCont;r=1
This patch is to get rid of the checking to the number of vCont;s in
exec_cmd_expect_vCont_count.

* lib/range-stepping-support.exp (exec_cmd_expect_vCont_count):
Remove argument exp_vCont_s.
* gdb.base/range-stepping.exp: Callers updated.
* gdb.trace/range-stepping.exp: Likewise.
Tracepoints and range stepping are independent features. This patch
skips the gdb.trace/range-stepping.exp test case if the target does not
support range stepping.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/range-stepping.exp (gdb_range_stepping_enabled):
Move it to ...
* lib/range-stepping-support.exp (gdb_range_stepping_enabled):
... here.
* gdb.trace/range-stepping.exp: Check that the target supports
range stepping.
* gdb.base/range-stepping.exp: Skip the rest of tests if the
test fails.
* lib/range-stepping-support.exp (exec_cmd_expect_vCont_count):
Return 0 if the test passes, otherwise return 1.
This adds tests to verify range stepping is used as expected, by
inspecting the RSP traffic, looking for vCont;s and vCont;r packets.
