Fix heap-use-after-free because all_objfiles_removed triggers tui_display_main
Since gdb-10 there is a heap-use-after free happening if starting the
target in TUI triggers a re-reading of symbols.
It can be reproduced with:
$ gdb -q -batch a.out -ex "tui enable" -ex "shell touch a.out" -ex start

The problem is that tui_display_main is called by the all_objfiles_removed
hook, which tries to access the symbol cache.
This symbol cache is actually stale at this point, and would have been
flushed immediately afterwards by that same all_objfiles_removed hook.
It's not possible to tell the hook to call the observers in a specific
order, but in this case the tui_all_objfiles_removed observer is actually
not needed, since it only calls tui_display_main, and a 'main' can only
be found if objfiles are added, not removed.
So the fix is to simply remove the tui_all_objfiles_removed observer.
The clearing of the source window (if symbols were removed by e.g. 'file'
without arguments) still works, since this is done by the
tui_before_prompt observer.
