Done. Just with one small tweak -- your text used wording that assumes a breakpoint
only has one location, "deletes any breakpoint whose code location is at", etc.
I tweaked it to say "any breakpoint with a code location that is at", etc.
If you have a multi location breakpoint, and you specify one of the locations,
gdb really deletes the whole breakpoint:
(top-gdb) info breakpoints 3
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
3 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE>
3.1 y 0x00000000000ed06c in main(int, char**) at /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/gdb/gdb.c:25
3.2 y 0x000000000086aa66 in selftests::string_view::capacity_1::main() at /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/capacity/1.cc:167
3.3 y 0x000000000086ae85 in selftests::string_view::cons_1::main() at /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/cons/char/1.cc:62

(top-gdb) clear *0x00000000000ed06c
Deleted breakpoint 3
