[PATCH V2] Don't print too much if remote_debug is on


v2: Only print the first REMOTE_DEBUG_MAX_CHAR chars in debug
    output.

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 only print 512 chars in max in
debugging messages, like this,
