Make valgrind tests more robust by adding --wait=1 to vgdb invocation
On my setup some valgrind tests failed somewhat reliably because the target remote | vgdb command couldn't find the vgdb-pipe files because valgrind startup hadn't finished yet. I tried to fix this by replacing the "Memcheck, a memory error detector" match to "TO DEBUG THIS PROCESS USING GDB: start GDB like this" which is right before valgrind creates the vgdb-pipe files. But even that didn't guarantee that the vgdb-pipe files were there (maybe valgrind should print that text after it has created them?). But also not all tests use --vgdb-error=0, so the text isn't always printed. To make the tests reliable I added --wait=1 to the vgdb invocation. That tells vgdb to try to find the vgdb-pipe files, and if they aren't there yet, to wait 1 second and try again. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * lib/valgrind.exp (vgdb_start): Add --wait=1 to vgdbcmd.
