[Bug 1588066] [NEW] SRU: backport gdb 7.11.1 patches to 16.04 LTS (from 7.11)

[Matthias Klose]

Public bug reported:

SRU: backport gdb 7.11.1 patches to 16.04 LTS (from 7.11).  The upstream
bugfix release contains a handful of patches fixing only bugs, which
are:

    - Fix PR gdb/19828, PR gdb/20045, PR gdb/18077, PR gdb/20039,
      PR python/20037, PR remote/19840, PR gdb/19858, PR gdb/19829,
      PR gdb/19676.

Also mentioned in the attached debdiff.

Proposing to accept this update into xenial-proposed, and accept it if
the newly added testcases pass and existing test cases don't show
regressions (the testsuite is run during the build).  The build in
yakkety doesn't show any regressions, and the new test cases pass.
