testsuite: Don't use expect_background to reap gdbserver

I adjusted a test to do 'expect -i $server_spawn_id -re ...', and saw
really strange behavior.  Whether that expect would work, depended on
whether GDB would also send output and the same expect matched it too
(on $gdb_spawn_id).  I was perplexed until I noticed that
gdbserver_spawn spawns gdbserver and then uses expect_background to
reap gdbserver.  That expect_background conflicts/races with any
"expect -i $server_spawn_id" done anywhere else in parallel...

In order to make it possible for tests to read inferior I/O out of
$server_spawn_id, we to get rid of that expect_background.  This patch
makes us instead reap gdbserver's spawn id when GDB exits.  If GDB is
still around, this gives a chance for gdbserver to exit cleanly.  The
current code in gdb_finish uses "kill", but that doesn't work with
extended-remote (gdbserver doesn't exit).  We now use "monitor exit"
instead which works in both remote and extended-remote modes.
