This patch makes the execution control code use largely the same
mechanisms in both sync- and async-capable targets. This means using
continuations and use the event loop to react to target events on sync
targets as well. The trick is to immediately mark infrun's event loop
source after resume instead of calling wait_for_inferior. Then
fetch_inferior_event is adjusted to do a blocking wait on sync
targets.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver, with and without
"maint set target-async off".

This patch fixes the following bug in TUI:
(gdb) break foo
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) <ENTER>
By submitting an empty command line to a secondary prompt, the line
corresponding to the secondary prompt is undesirably cleared and
overwritten. Outside of a secondary prompt, clearing the prompt line
after submitting an empty command line is intended behavior which
complements GDB's repeat-command shorthand. But inside a secondary
prompt, this behavior is undesired since the shorthand is not applicable
in that case. We should retain the secondary-prompt line even when it's
given no input.
This patch makes sure that a prompt that was given an empty command line
is cleared and overwritten only if it's not a secondary prompt. To
acheive this, a new predicate is defined which informs us whether the
current input handler is a secondary prompt.

(gdb_in_secondary_prompt_p): Define.

* tui/tui-io.c (tui_getc): Don't clear the prompt line if we

This patch makes readline append new history lines to the GDB history
file on exit instead of overwriting the entire history file on exit.
This change allows us to run multiple simultaneous GDB sessions without
having each session overwrite the added history of each other session on
exit.
Care must be taken to ensure that the history file doesn't get corrupted
when multiple GDB processes are trying to simultaneously append to and
then truncate it. Safety is achieved in such a situation by using an
intermediate local history file to mutually exclude multiple processes
from simultaneously performing write operations on the global history
file.

(gdb_add_history): New function.

Doing:
gdb --pid=PID -ex run
Results in GDB getting a SIGTTIN, and thus ending stopped. That's
usually indicative of a missing target_terminal_ours call.
E.g., from the PR:
$ sleep 1h & p=$!; sleep 0.1; gdb -batch sleep $p -ex run
[1] 28263
[1] Killed sleep 1h
[2]+ Stopped gdb -batch sleep $p -ex run
The workaround is doing:
gdb -ex "attach $PID" -ex "run"
instead of
gdb [-p] $PID -ex "run"
With the former, gdb waits for the attach command to complete before
moving on to the "run" command, because the interpreter is in sync
mode at this point, within execute_command. But for the latter,
attach_command is called directly from captured_main, and thus misses
that waiting. IOW, "run" is running before the attach continuation
has run, before the program stops and attach completes. The broken
terminal settings are just one symptom of that. Any command that
queries or requires input results in the same.
The fix is to wait in catch_command_errors (which is specific to
main.c nowadays), just like we wait in execute_command.

This simplifies the .gdbinit filename selection logic.
We have a GDBINIT_FILENAME define that supposedly configurations would
override, but none do so. Instead, the only configuration that wants
a different file name instead of ".gdbinit", djgpp, does a strcpy over
the gdbinit global array. This means the array needs to be sized, and
the code that does that is doing the usual
'PATH_MAX/FILENAME_MAX/fallback constant/etc.' mess.
Instead of all that, it's much simpler to have configure specificy the
.gdbinit filename. As bonus, we can then make the "gdbinit" global
array const.
