[binutils-gdb] gdb: Free inferior->priv when inferior exits

    gdb: Free inferior->priv when inferior exits
    
    (Where "exits" includes being killed or detached.)
    
    Nothing is clearing inferior->priv currently.  This is a problem if we
    change the inferior's process_stratum targets in a single debug
    session.  This field is currently only used by darwin-nat.c, but a
    follow up patch will make remote.c use it too.  Without the fix,
    remote.c might end up mistaking the priv object allocated by
    darwin-nat.c with its own.
    
    (Found by inspection.)

    	* inferior.c (exit_inferior_1): Free 'priv'.
