OK, here's a patch that adds
   1) remote protocol documentation
   2) The requested extension to the 'T' reply to replace E06
   3) A big honking "deprecated" warning for E06.

Thanks. The documentation part is approved, with 2 comments:

      * gdb.texinfo: Document the 'bc' and 'bs' (reverse) commands,
      and the 'replaylog' annotation of the 'T' stop event message.

Please mention the names of the nodes where you made the changes. In doc/ChangeLog, node names are treated like functions in the code, for this purpose, i.e. they should appear in parens before the description of the change itself.

+@item bc
+@cindex @samp{bc} packet
+Backward continue.  Execute the target system in reverse.  No parameter.

Please add here an xref to the place that describes the reverse execution feature. Not everybody will remember that by heart when they read the words "backward continue".

Right to both. Thanks.
