gdb: move setbuf calls out of gdb_readline_no_editing_callback
After this commit: commit d08cbc5d3203118da5583296e49273cf82378042 Date: Wed Dec 22 12:57:44 2021 +0000 gdb: unbuffer all input streams when not using readline Issues were reported with some MS-Windows hosts, see the thread starting here: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-March/187004.html Filed in bugzilla as: PR mi/29002 The problem seems to be that calling setbuf on terminal file handles is not always acceptable, see this mail for more details: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-April/187310.html This commit does two things, first moving the setbuf calls out of gdb_readline_no_editing_callback so that we don't end up calling setbuf so often. Then, for MS-Windows hosts, we don't call setbuf for terminals, this appears to resolve the issues that have been reported. Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29002
