[RFA] monitor.c fix for rom68k target boards

This patch allows gdb to work with rom68k target boards once again (it's 
been broken for a year and a half apparently).

I don't think the routine needs to care about checking for termination of 
the string.  In the case of this monitor, the SR is returned as 
"2700-tfSm.111...xnzvc" for example.  Before Jason's change to this 
routine, it used strtoul which ended the matching at the first non 
digit.  Jason changed it to work with values larger than 'long' so it's 
now a hand-coded loop to gather the digits.

        * monitor.c (monitor_supply_register): Don't check for trailing
        junk since the rom68k monitor includes trailing junk in the
        status register.
