[binutils-gdb] gdb/doc: Remove mention of vCont's default actions

    gdb/doc: Remove mention of vCont's default actions
    
    Discussion with qemu folks suggests that the vCont description could
    be even simpler and clearer.  Given we now say:
    
     For each inferior thread, the leftmost action with a matching
     thread-id is applied.
    
    There's really no need to even talk about "default" actions, which
    raises doubts about whether "default" is special in some way (it's
    not).
    
    See <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-10/msg06944.html>.
