gdb: Coalesce/aggregate (async) vCont packets/actions

Currently, with "maint set target-non-stop on", that is, when gdb
connects with the non-stop/asynchronous variant of the remote
protocol, even with "set non-stop off", GDB always sends one vCont
packet per thread resumed.  This patch makes GDB aggregate and
coalesce vCont packets, so we send vCont packets like "vCont;s:p1.1;c"
in non-stop mode too.

Basically, this is done by:

  - Adding a new target method target_commit_resume that is called
    after calling target_resume one or more times.  When resuming a
    batch of threads, we'll only call target_commit_resume once after
    calling target_resume for all threads.

  - Making the remote target defer sending the actual vCont packet to
    target_commit_resume.

Special care must be taken to avoid sending a vCont action with a
"wildcard" thread-id (all threads of process / all threads) when that
would resume threads/processes that should not be resumed.  See
remote_commit_resume comments for details.

Unlike all-stop's remote_resume implementation, this handles the case
of too many actions resulting in a too-big vCont packet, by flushing
the vCont packet and starting a new one.

E.g., imagining that the "c" action in:

  vCont;s:1;c

overflows the packet buffer, we split the actions like:

  vCont;s:1
  vCont;c

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, with and without "maint set
target-non-stop on".

Also tested with a hack that makes remote_commit_resume flush the vCont
packet after every action appended (which caught a few bugs).
