Yes, I know you worry about it and I agree with it.  So I add 
TRACE_TRY_GDBSERVER.

For the test that against a remote target or other normal way, because 
TRACE_TRY_GDBSERVER is not set.  Test will not auto try target remote 
when current target didn't support trace.

When we want test the function inside the GDB, we can set 
TRACE_TRY_GDBSERVER, then test will use gdbserver if need.

Thanks,
Hui
