This moves some gdb-specific code out of start_event_loop, into a new
function that must be supplied by the event-loop client.

gdb/ChangeLog
2019-02-24  Tom Tromey  <tom@tromey.com>

	* main.c (handle_event_loop_exception): New function.
	* event-loop.c: Don't include event-top.h or observable.h.
	(start_event_loop): Remove gdb-specific code.  Call
	handle_event_loop_exception.
	* event-loop.h (handle_event_loop_exception): Declare.
