tests/guest-debug: better handle gdb crashes

There are a number of GDB's on various distros which fail fairly hard
when attempting to talk to a cross-arch guest. The previous attempt to
catch this was incorrect as the shell will deliver signals as 128+n.
Fix the detection and while we are it improve the logging we dump into
the test output.
