[gdb/testsuite] Fix solib-list.exp test-case for exec with debug-info

Since commit a2fedca99c "Implement 'set/show exec-file-mismatch'.", I see the
following regression on openSUSE Leap 15.1:
...
FAIL: gdb.server/solib-list.exp: non-stop 0: target remote \
  (got interactive prompt)
FAIL: gdb.server/solib-list.exp: non-stop 1: target remote \
  (got interactive prompt)
...

The first FAIL in more detail:
...
(gdb) PASS: gdb.server/solib-list.exp: non-stop 0: file binfile

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.server/solib-list.exp: non-stop 0: target remote (got \

...

The commit introduces the "Load new symbol table from" question, and
gdb_test_multiple defaults to answering "no" and reporting the
"got interactive prompt" FAIL.

This FAIL is not seen on f.i. debian 10.2.  The difference originates from the
fact that the solib-list executable has debug-info in the openSUSE case, while
it doesn't in the debian case.

We can prevent the failure on openSUSE by stripping the executable from
debug-info:
...
+ exec strip --strip-debug ${binfile}
...

The difference in behaviour is a bug or improvement opportunity in the
exec-file-mismatch, filed as PR25475.

This patch fixes the FAIL by handling the question in the test-case.

Tested on x86_64-linux.

Tested on x86_64-linux with the gdbserver part of the patch introducing the
test-case reverted to ensure that this still FAILs.
