[PATCH] Enable HW Breakpoint in gdbserver-linux-x86

[Michael Eager]

The code in gdbserver which supports hardware watchpoints on
x86 Linux can also support hardware breakpoints without modification.

The attached patch calls the insert/remove watchpoint routines
for hardware breakpoints as well as watchpoints.   Most of the
changes are to add comments identifying the wp/bp type values.

   * gdbserver/i386-low.c (Z_packet_to_hw_type):  Add Z_PACKET_HW_BP,
   translate to hw_execute.
   * gdbserver/linux-x86-low.c (x86_insert_point,  x86_remove_point):
   Call i386_low_insert_watchpoint, i386_low_remove_watchpoint to add/del
   hardware breakpoint.
