[PATCH]: MI -var-set-format

- Subject: [PATCH]: MI -var-set-format
Currently:
-var-evaluate-expression var1
^done,value="18"
-var-set-format var1 hexadecimal
^done,format="hexadecimal"
-var-set-format just repeats the format that has been set which is not
very useful since presumably the front end sent it in the first place.
I would like to add the value in the (new) current format, which I find
much more useful:
-var-set-format var1 hexadecimal
^done,format="hexadecimal",value="0x12"
OK to apply if I update the testsuite accordingly?
