I don't see how it can make sense that the same command does both
one-time disassembly and disassemble the next source line each time
GDB stops.  It's like "print" and "display" -- it's not an accident we
have 2 different commands there.

If anything, extending "display" with yet another format specifier, or
maybe a qualifier for /i, would make much more sense to me.
