gdb: add gdbarch_stack_grows_down function

In another patch I'm working on I needed to ask: does the stack grow
down, or grow up?

Looking around I found in infcall.c some code where we needed to ask
the same question, what we do there is ask:

  gdbarch_inner_than (gdbarch, 1, 2)

which should do the job.  However, I don't particularly like copying
this, it feels like we're asking something slightly different that
just happens to align with the question we're actually asking.

I propose adding a new function `gdbarch_stack_grows_down`.  This is
not going to be a gdbarch method that can be overridden, instead, this
will just call the gdbarch_inner_than function.  We already have some
gdbarch methods like this, checkout arch-utils.c for examples.

I think it's now clearer what we're actually doing.

A new self-test ensures that all architectures have a stack that
either grows down, or grows up.

There should be no user visible changes after this commit.
