gdb/mi: add --no-connection to MI -add-inferior command
Following on from the previous commit, where the -add-inferior command now uses the same connection as the current inferior, this commit adds a --no-connection option to -add-inferior. This new option matches the existing option of the same name for the CLI version of add-inferior; the new inferior is created with no connection. I've added a new 'connection' field to the MI output of -add-inferior, which includes the connection number and short name. I haven't included the longer description field, this is the MI after all. My expectation would be that if the frontend wanted to display all the connection details then this would be looked up from 'info connection' (or the MI equivalent if/when such a command is added). The existing -add-inferior tests are updated, as are the docs.
