[binutils-gdb] Make breakpoint/location number parsing error output consistent


*** TEST RESULTS FOR COMMIT 95e95a6de2e4a050870c49bf52fbac0239847b63 ***

Author: Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
Branch: master
Commit: 95e95a6de2e4a050870c49bf52fbac0239847b63

Make breakpoint/location number parsing error output consistent

... and also make GDB catch a few more cases of invalid input.

This fixes the inconsistency in GDB's output (e.g., "bad" vs "Bad")
exposed by the new tests added in the previous commit.

Also, makes the "0-0" and "inverted range" cases be loud errors.

Also makes GDB reject negative breakpoint number in ranges.  We
already rejected negative number literals, but you could still subvert
that via convenience variables, like:

  (gdb) set $bp -1
  (gdb) disable $bp.1-2

The change to get_number_trailer fixes a bug exposed by the new tests.
The function did not handle parsing "-$num".  [This wasn't visible in
the gdb.multi/tids.exp (which has similar tests) because the TID range
parsing is implemented differently.]
