    [gdb/testsuite] Handle auto_left_margin in tuiterm
    
    The terminal capability bw (aka as auto_left_margin) controls whether a
    backspace at the start of a line wraps to the last column of the previous
    line.
    
    For tuiterm, we use TERM=ansi, and on linux at least that capability is off.
    
    Consequently the current implementation of Term::_ctl_0x08 doesn't wrap.
    
    Add this capability in Term::_ctl_0x08, and add a unit test.
    
    Tested on aarch64-linux.
