gdbserver: don't exit until GDB disconnects

When testing with "target remote" with "maint set target-non-stop on",
we regressions like this:

  Running /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/continue-pending-after-query.exp ...
  FAIL: gdb.threads/continue-pending-after-query.exp: iter 4: continue until exit
  FAIL: gdb.threads/continue-pending-after-query.exp: iter 6: continue until exit
  FAIL: gdb.threads/continue-pending-after-query.exp: iter 10: continue until exit

  === gdb Summary ===

  # of expected passes            28
  # of unexpected failures        3

where gdb.log shows:

  continue
  Continuing.
  Remote communication error.  Target disconnected.: Connection reset by peer.
  (gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/continue-pending-after-query.exp: iter 4: continue until exit

Enabling gdb + gdbserver debug logs we see:

  gdbserver:  <<<< exiting linux_wait_1
  gdbserver: handling possible serial event
  gdbserver: Writing resume reply for LWP 11089.11089:0
  gdbserver: handling possible serial event
  gdbserver: GDBserver exiting

GDB: Packet received: OK
GDB: infrun: prepare_to_wait
GDB: Sending packet: $vStopped#55...Packet received: W0;process:2b51
GDB: Sending packet: $vStopped#55...Packet received: OK

GDB: infrun:   status->kind = no-resumed
GDB: Sending packet: $Hgp2b51.2b51#41...Remote connection closed
    (gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/continue-pending-after-query.exp: iter 1: continue until exit

Notice the "Packet received: W0;process:2b51" followed by
vStopped->OK.

That means the process exit notification was successfully sent to GDB
and GDB fetched it.  That makes gdbserver exit, in
server.c:process_serial_event:

  if (!extended_protocol && have_ran && !target_running ())
    {
      /* In non-stop, defer exiting until GDB had a chance to query
 the whole vStopped list (until it gets an OK).  */
      if (QUEUE_is_empty (notif_event_p, notif_stop.queue))
{
  /* Be transparent when GDB is connected through stdio -- no
     need to spam GDB's console.  */
  if (!remote_connection_is_stdio ())
    fprintf (stderr, "GDBserver exiting\n");
  remote_close ();
  exit (0);
}
    }

However, GDB is still busy processing an earlier "no-resumed" event,
and sends a "Hg" packet, which errors out with "Remote connection
closed".  IOW, it's not enough to wait for GDB to query the whole
vStopped list, gdbserver needs to wait until the exit event is really
processed.

The fix is to make gdbserver not disconnect until gdb does.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora, native gdbserver, remote + extended-remote +
with and without "maint set target-non-stop on".

gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2015-10-14  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

* remote-utils.c (readchar): Don't print "Got EOF" unless
debugging gdbserver.
* server.c (captured_main): Exit gdbserver if gdb disconnects when
in "target remote" mode and there are no processes left to debug.
(process_serial_event): Remove 'have_ran' static local and remove
logic that exits gdbserver in "target remote" mode.
