[PATCH] Don't print too much if remote_debug is on


If we turn "remote debug" on and GDB does some vFile operations,
a lot of things will be printed in the screen, which makes
"remote debug" useless.

This patch changes the code that we don't print messages if
messages are too long, greater than 512.  Instead, print
"Sending packet: $vFile:pread:5,3fff,e0d12#c4...Packet received: [16384 bytes omitted]".

gdb:

2016-11-29  Yao Qi  <yao.qi@linaro.org>

	* remote.c (REMOTE_DEBUG_MAX_CHAR): New macro.
	(putpkt_binary): Print if content length is less than
	REMOTE_DEBUG_MAX_CHAR.
	(getpkt_or_notif_sane_1): Likewise.
