Introduce gdb-specific %p format suffixes

This introduces a few gdb-specific %p format suffixes.  This is useful
for emitting gdb-specific output in an ergonomic way.  It also yields
code that is more i18n-friendly.

The comment before ui_out::message explains the details.

Note that the tests had to change a little.  When using one of the gdb
printf functions with styling, there can be spurious style changes
emitted to the output.  This did not seem worthwhile to fix, as the
low-level output functions are rather spaghetti-ish already, and I
didn't want to make them even worse.

This change also necessitated adding support for "*" as precision and
width in format_pieces.  These are used in various spots in gdb, and
it seemed better to me to implement them than to remove the uses.
