[RFA] set/show enable-software-singlestep


There may be cases where gdb would be inclined to use
software singlestep, but you might not want it to.  Examples:

 * "target remote" to a target such as a simulator that
   would be able to support normal singlestep.

 * reverse debugging, where you can't predict the 
   "come-from" address of a jump instruction.

What do you guys think?  Useful?
