target: consider addressable unit size when reading/writing memory
If we are reading/writing from a memory object, the length represents the number of "addresses" to read/write, so the addressable unit size needs to be taken into account when allocating memory on gdb's side. gdb/ChangeLog: * target.c (target_read): Consider addressable unit size when reading from a memory object. (read_memory_robust): Same. (read_whatever_is_readable): Same. (target_write_with_progress): Consider addressable unit size when writing to a memory object. * target.h (target_read): Update documentation. (target_write): Add documentation.
