[binutils-gdb] Assume termios is available, remove support for termio and sgtty

Assume termios is available, remove support for termio and sgtty

This commit garbage collects the termio and sgtty support.

GDB's terminal handling code still has support for the old termio and
sgtty interfaces in addition to termios.  However, I think it's pretty
safe to assume that for a long, long time, Unix-like systems provide
termios.  GNU/Linux, Solaris, Cygwin, AIX, DJGPP, macOS and the BSDs
all have had termios.h for many years.  Looking around the web, I
found discussions about FreeBSD folks trying to get rid of old sgtty.h
a decade ago:

  https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2007-March/019983.html

So I think support for termio and sgtty in GDB is just dead code that
is never compiled anywhere and is just getting in the way.  For
example, serial_noflush_set_tty_state and the raw<->cooked concerns
mentioned in inflow.c only exist because of sgtty (see
hardwire_noflush_set_tty_state).

Regtested on GNU/Linux.

Confirmed that I can still build Solaris, DJGPP and AIX GDB and that
the resulting GDBs still include the termios.h-guarded code.
Confirmed mingw-w64 GDB still builds and skips the termios.h-guarded
code.
