    gdb/arch: assert that X86_XSTATE_MPX is not set for x32

          gdbserver: Clear X86_XSTATE_MPX bits in xcr0 on x32
    
    With this patch series of mine:
    
      https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/cover.1706801009.git.aburgess@redhat.com
    
    I worried that there could be other paths that could result in an xcr0
    value that has X86_XSTATE_MPX set in x32 mode.  As everyone eventually
    calls amd64_create_target_description to build their target
    description, I figured we could assert in here that if X86_XSTATE_MPX
    is set then we should not be an x32 target, this should uncover any
    other bugs in this area.
    
    I'm not currently able to build/run any x32 binaries, so I have no way
    to test this.
