[PATCH 3/3] Fix a FAIL in attach.exp under native-extended-gdbserver


The attach.exp test case yields a FAIL with native-extended-gdbserver when
trying to start a new process.  This is because gdbserver does not support
starting new processes.  And since the gdbserver-base board file sets the
GDB command line option -ex "set auto-connect-native-target off", the
process is not started on the native target either.  An error message
results instead:

  Don't know how to run.  Try "help target".

Thus just accept this error when not running on a native target.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* gdb.base/attach.exp: Accept the error message "don't know how to
	run" when not running on a native target.
