[PATCH v2] Indicate batch mode failures by exiting with nonzero status

Hi all,
This patch causes GDB in batch mode to exit with nonzero status
if the last command to be executed fails.
Changes since version 1:
- I've reworked the patch to not use a global variable.
- Behaviour has not changed from version 1.
Built and regtested on RHEL 7.5 x86_64.
Ok to commit?
Thanks,
Gary
