gdb: add string_file::release method
A common pattern for string_file is to want to move out the internal string buffer, because it is the result of the computation that we want to return. It is the reason why string_file::string returns a non-const reference, as explained in the comment. I think it would make sense to have a dedicated method for that instead and make string_file::string return a const reference. This allows removing the explicit std::move in the typical case. Note that compile_program::compute was missing a move, meaning that the resulting string was copied. With the new version, it's not possible to forget to move.
