[RFA] Link remote target with svr4 solibs.


The following change is necessary in order to activate svr4 solib debugging
for remote targets.  With it, GDB will detect when the remote target loads
a new shared library (using the method implemented in solib-svr4.c), and
GDB will load the symbols for the library (provided that GDB has been told
where to find the symbol files, using the "set solib-search-path" and
"set solib-absolute-prefix" commands.

	* remote.c (remote_open): On opening the remote target, activate
	the solib_create_inferior_hook, so that it can detect when the
	target loads shared libraries.
