Formatting of packet descriptions in GDB manual

Here's a patch that implements the formatting changes to the
description of the remote protocol packets we've been discussing on
gdb@.
This uses @code for the packet templates, even though in my last
message there I said I thought @samp was more appropriate; @code is
what I've got right now, and I didn't want to go and change everything
twice if the conclusion was that @code was better. But you can see
what was done.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
2005-11-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@redhat.com>
* gdb.texinfo (Packets): Use @code for packet contents. Drop
summaries from packet @item lines; the same information appears
immediately below in the description. Delete paragraph breaks
after packet @item commands, so that the description appears
directly to the right of the packet prototype in the printed
manual, if it fits. Place spaces in packet prototypes between
@vars and non-@var letters, and explain that they're just for
formatting. Use @dots{} instead of '...'.
