[PATCH 0/3] Fix "Remote 'g' packet reply is too long" problems with multiple inferiors

[Pedro Alves <palves at redhat dot com>]

This series fixes some problems I uncovered while working on my
multi-target branch [1].

Namely when debugging two inferiors (or more) against gdbserver, and
the inferiors have different architectures, such as e.g., on x86_64
GNU/Linux and one inferior is 64-bit while the other is 32-bit, then
GDB can get confused with the different architectures in a couple
spots, resulting in instances of the infamous "Remote 'g' packet reply
is too long" error.  For example, with the test added in patch #3, we
get:

~~~
  Continuing.
  Remote 'g' packet reply is too long (expected 440 bytes, got 816 bytes): ad064000000000000[snip]
  (gdb) FAIL: gdb.multi/multi-arch.exp: inf1 event with inf2 selected: continue to hello_loop

  c
  Continuing.
  Truncated register 50 in remote 'g' packet
  (gdb) PASS: gdb.multi/multi-arch.exp: inf2 event with inf1 selected: c
~~~

The fix I was aiming for is in patch #3.  The other two patches
preemptively fix problems that patch #3 alone would cause.  They're
sorted this way to avoid introducing temporary regressions.
