This commit adds new "set/show cwd" commands, which are used to
set/show the current working directory of the inferior that will be
started.
The idea here is that "set cwd" will become the de facto way of
setting the inferior's cwd. Currently, the user can use "cd" for
that, but there are side effects: with "cd", GDB also switches to
another directory, and that can impact the loading of scripts and
other files. With "set cwd", we separate the logic into a new
command.
To maintain backward compatibility, if the user issues a "cd" command
but doesn't use "set cwd", then the inferior's cwd will still be
changed according to what the user specified. However, "set cwd" has
precedence over "cd", so it can always be used to override it.
"set cwd" works in the following way:
- If the user sets the inferior's cwd by using "set cwd", then this
directory is saved into current_inferior ()->cwd and is used when
the inferior is started (see below).
- If the user doesn't set the inferior's cwd by using "set cwd", but
rather use the "cd" command as before, then this directory is
inherited by the inferior because GDB will have chdir'd into it.
On Unix-like hosts, the way the directory is changed before the
inferior execution is by expanding the user set directory before the
fork, and then "chdir" after the call to fork/vfork on
"fork_inferior", but before the actual execution. On Windows, the
inferior cwd set by the user is passed directly to the CreateProcess
call, which takes care of the actual chdir for us.
This way, we'll make sure that GDB's cwd is not affected by the user
set cwd.

Currently, whenever we want to handle paths provided by the user and
perform tilde expansion on GDB, we rely on "tilde_expand", which comes
from readline. This was enough for our use cases so far, but the
situation will change when we start dealing with paths on gdbserver as
well, which is what the next patches implement.
Unfortunately it is not possible to use "tilde_expand" in this case
because gdbserver doesn't use readline. For that reason I decided to
implement a new "gdb_tilde_expand" function, which is basically a
wrapper for "glob" and its GNU extension, GLOB_TILDE_CHECK. With the
import of the "glob" module from gnulib, we're sure that "glob" always
supports this extension.

Printing a string slice ("&str") in Rust would print until the
terminating \0; but that is incorrect because a slice has a length.
This fixes &str printing, and arranges to preserve the type name when
slicing a slice, so that printing a slice of an "&str" works as well.
