[PATCH 2/4] Transform "\r\n" in pattern to "\r+\n"

  Hi Yao,

  I tried this some time ago, see:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-06/msg00039.html

but I ended up with something much more complicated ...
The primary reason is that your code below will also change
[\r\n] into [\r+\n] which is not really what it should do...
It could also interfere with messages (not patterns)
in expcode that contain \r\n sequences...

  Finally, I think that there is also a completely orthogonal
solution to the problem you mention, which is to force
GDB to use binary mode for stdout and stderr instead of text mode.

  Your patch to fix the ordering of stderr versus stdout output seem to
work, so the only remaining specific mingw host is that GDB uses text mode
for its stdout and stderr.

  This is an adaptation/simplification of a previous idea I proposed, to
add:
maint set testsuite-mode on/off
command, which was both setting stdout and stderr to binary mode and 
disabled any buffering for this handles.

I will try to submit this patch shortly.
