[binutils-gdb] Fix PR gdb/20418 - Problems with synchronous commands and new-ui

Fix PR gdb/20418 - Problems with synchronous commands and new-ui

When executing commands on a secondary UI running the MI interpreter,
some commands that should be synchronous are not.  MI incorrectly
continues processing input right after the synchronous command is
sent, before the target stops.

The problem happens when we emit MI async events (=library-loaded,
etc.), and we go about restoring the previous terminal state, we end
up calling target_terminal_ours, which incorrectly always installs the
current UI's input_fd in the event loop...  That is, code like this:

   old_chain = make_cleanup_restore_target_terminal ();
   target_terminal_ours_for_output ();

   fprintf_unfiltered (mi->event_channel, "library-loaded");

...

   do_cleanups (old_chain);

The fix is to move the add_file_handler/delete_file_handler calls out
of target_terminal_$foo, making these completely no-ops unless called
with the main UI as current UI.
