[commit] Adjust gdbserver execv behavior

- Subject: [commit] Adjust gdbserver execv behavior
Gdbserver used to use execv; Mike Frysinger suggested we change it to
execvp. I went ahead and applied that but I should have thought about
it a bit more since it fried my test harness :-)
It's friendlier in this context to prefer $PWD, since that's what
we've always done before. Checked in.

* linux-low.c (linux_create_inferior): Try execv before execvp.
* spu-low.c (spu_create_inferior): Likewise.
