[PATCH, doc]: Rename Index node to prevent file collision


Hi there.  This patch renames the 'Index' node in the GDB end user documentation to 'GDB Index'
to prevent generating HTML filenames that differ only in case.

makeinfo generates a HTML file per node and uses the node name as the filename.  It also generates
a top level 'index.html'.  This causes problems in Windows as 'index.html' and 'Index.html' differ
only in case.

'GDB Index' matches the binutils style of using 'AS Index' and similar for the different tools.
makeinfo displays the node name to the end user in the window title so you can't use names like
'Index_'.

OK for trunk?
