Fix "layout reg" crash

Commit d7e747318f4d04 ("Eliminate make_cleanup_ui_file_delete / make
ui_file a class hierarchy") introduced a problem when using "layout
regs", that leads gdb to crash when issuing:

./gdb ./a.out -ex 'layout regs' -ex start

>From the backtrace, it's caused by this 'delete' on tui_restore_gdbout():

 714	  delete gdb_stdout;

The problem is simply that the commit mentioned above made the ui_file
that gdb_stdout is temporarily set to be a stack-allocated
string_file, while before it used to be a heap-allocated ui_file.  The
fix is simply to remove the now-incorrect delete.

New test included, which exercises enabling all TUI layouts, with and
without execution.  (This particular crash only triggers with
execution.)

gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-03-07  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	* tui/tui-regs.c (tui_restore_gdbout): Don't delete gdb_stdout.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2017-03-07  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	* gdb.base/tui-layout.c: New file.
	* gdb.base/tui-layout.exp: New file.
