[PATCH 4/7] range stepping: gdb


This patch teaches GDB to send 'vCont;r' packet when appropriate.
GDB has to check whether the target understands 'r' action of 'vCont'
packet.  We also make use of fields 'step_range_start' and
'step_range_end' of 'struct thread_control_state' to compose the range
of the stepping.

gdb:

2013-03-11  Yao Qi  <yao@codesourcery.com>

	* remote.c (struct support_v_cont) <r>: New field.
	(remote_vcont_probe): Handle 'r' action of 'vCont' packet.
	(append_resumption): Send 'vCont;r' for range stepping.
