[PATCH] Add several "quit with live inferior" tests


In my multi-target branch, I had managed to break GDB exiting
successfuly in response to "quit" or SIGHUP/SIGTERM when:

 - you're debugging with "target extended-remote",
 - have more than one inferior loaded in gdb, some running, and at
   least one not running, and,
 - quit gdb with the inferior that is not running yet selected.

The testsuite still passed cleanly anyway.  I only noticed because I
was left with a bunch of core dumps in the gdb/testsuite/ directory --
the testsuite infrastructure closes GDB's pty after running each
testcase, which results in GDB getting a SIGHUP and should make GDB
exit gracefully.  If GDB crashes at that point though, there's no
indication about it in gdb.sum/gdb.log.

This commit adds a multitude of tests exercising quitting GDB with
live inferiors, some of which would have caught the problem.

+# Exercises combinations of:
+#
+# - quitting with "quit"command, or with SIGTERM/SIGHUP signals.
+#
+# - quitting with live inferior selected, or file_stratum inferior
+#   selected.
+#
+# - quitting after "run", or after "attach".
+#
+# - quitting with local executable, or executable loaded from target
+#   directly (via default "target:/" sysroot), or with no executable
+#   loaded.
+
+# Note: sending an asynchronous SIGHUP with kill is not the exact same
+# as closing GDB's input, and that resulting in SIGHUP.  However, it's
+# still a good approximation, and it has the advantage that because
+# GDB still has a terminal, internal errors (if any) are visible in
+# gdb.sum/gdb.log.
