[PATCH][gdb/testsuite] Work around tcl bug in libsegfault.exp with check-read1

[Tom de Vries <tdevries at suse dot de>]

Hi,

When running libsegfault.exp with check-read1, I get:
...
Running gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/libsegfault.exp ...
ERROR: tcl error sourcing gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/libsegfault.exp.

            set env(LD_PRELOAD) "$lib"
        } else {

There are several things here interacting with environment variable
LD_PRELOAD:
- the expect "binary" build/gdb/testsuite/expect-read1 with does
  export LD_PRELOAD=build/gdb/testsuite/read1.so before calling native expect
- read1.so which does unsetenv ("LD_PRELOAD") upon first call to read
- the test-case, which wants to set or append libSegFault.so to LD_PRELOAD

The error occurs when accessing $env(LD_PRELOAD), in a branch where
"info exists env(LD_PRELOAD)" returns true. AFAIU, this is
https://core.tcl-lang.org/tcl/tktview?name=67fd4f973a "incorrect results of
'info exists' when unset env var in one interp and check for existence from
another interp".

Work around the tcl bug by not unsetting the variable, but setting it to ""
instead:
...
-      unsetenv ("LD_PRELOAD");
+      setenv ("LD_PRELOAD", "", 1);
...

Verified that reverting commit de28a3b72e "[gdb/testsuite, 2/2] Fix
gdb.linespec/explicit.exp with check-read1" reintroduced the check-read1
failure in gdb.linespec/explicit.exp.

This fixes a similar error in attach-slow-waitpid.exp, which also sets
LD_PRELOAD.

Tested on x86_64-linux with check-read1.

OK for trunk?

Thanks,
- Tom
