This introduces a few gdb-specific %p format suffixes. This is useful
for emitting gdb-specific output in an ergonomic way. It also yields
code that is more i18n-friendly.
The comment before ui_out::message explains the details.
Note that the tests had to change a little. When using one of the gdb
printf functions with styling, there can be spurious style changes
emitted to the output. This did not seem worthwhile to fix, as the
low-level output functions are rather spaghetti-ish already, and I
didn't want to make them even worse.
This change also necessitated adding support for "*" as precision and
width in format_pieces. These are used in various spots in gdb, and
it seemed better to me to implement them than to remove the uses.

* gdb.base/style.exp: Update tests.
I noticed that format_pieces can create an empty literal piece.
However, there's never a need for one, so this patch removes the
possibility.
