gdb: New 'tui enable' and 'tui disable' commands.
Add new commands to specifically enable and disable tui mode. This is in addition to the readline bindings, but might be easier for a user to discover if they accidentally end up in tui mode. gdb/ChangeLog: * NEWS: Mention 'tui enable' and 'tui disable'. * tui/tui.c (tui_enable_command): New function. (tui_disable_command): New function. (_initialize_tui): New function. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * gdb.texinfo (TUI): Include 'tui enable' in the introduction. (TUI Commands): Add 'tui enable' and 'tui disable' details.
