Intel MPX bound violation handling

With Intel Memory Protection Extensions it was introduced the concept of
boundary violation.  A boundary violations is presented to the inferior as
a segmentation fault having SIGCODE 3.  This patch adds a
handler for a boundary violation extending the information displayed
when a bound violation is presented to the inferior.  In the stop mode
case the debugger will also display the kind of violation: "upper" or
"lower", bounds and the address accessed.
On no stop mode the information will still remain unchanged.  Additional
information about bound violations are not meaningful in that case user
does not know the line in which violation occurred as well.

When the segmentation fault handler is stop mode the out puts will be
changed as exemplified below.

The usual output of a segfault is:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault
0x0000000000400d7c in upper (p=0x603010, a=0x603030, b=0x603050,
c=0x603070, d=0x603090, len=7) at i386-mpx-sigsegv.c:68
68        value = *(p + len);

In case it is a bound violation it will be presented as:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault
Upper bound violation while accessing address 0x7fffffffc3b3
Bounds: [lower = 0x7fffffffc390, upper = 0x7fffffffc3a3]
0x0000000000400d7c in upper (p=0x603010, a=0x603030, b=0x603050,
c=0x603070, d=0x603090, len=7) at i386-mpx-sigsegv.c:68
68        value = *(p + len);

In mi mode the output of a segfault is:
*stopped,reason="signal-received",signal-name="SIGSEGV",
signal-meaning="Segmentation fault", frame={addr="0x0000000000400d7c",
func="upper",args=[{name="p", value="0x603010"},{name="a",value="0x603030"}
,{name="b",value="0x603050"}, {name="c",value="0x603070"},
{name="d",value="0x603090"},{name="len",value="7"}],
file="i386-mpx-sigsegv.c",fullname="i386-mpx-sigsegv.c",line="68"},
thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="6"

in the case of a bound violation:
*stopped,reason="signal-received",signal-name="SIGSEGV",
signal-meaning="Segmentation fault",
sigcode-meaning="Upper bound violation",
lower-bound="0x603010",upper-bound="0x603023",bound-access="0x60302f",
frame={addr="0x0000000000400d7c",func="upper",args=[{name="p",
value="0x603010"},{name="a",value="0x603030"},{name="b",value="0x603050"},
{name="c",value="0x603070"},{name="d",value="0x603090"},
{name="len",value="7"}],file="i386-mpx-sigsegv.c",
fullname="i386-mpx-sigsegv.c",line="68"},thread-id="1",
stopped-threads="all",core="6"

 *** Changes since GDB 7.11
 
+* Intel MPX bound violation handling.
+
+   Segmentation faults caused by a Intel MPX boundary violation
+   now display the kind of violation (upper or lower), the memory
+   address accessed and the memory bounds, along with the usual
+   signal received and code location.
+
+   For example:
+
+   Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault
+   Upper bound violation while accessing address 0x7fffffffc3b3
+   Bounds: [lower = 0x7fffffffc390, upper = 0x7fffffffc3a3]
+   0x0000000000400d7c in upper () at i386-mpx-sigsegv.c:68
+
 *** Changes in GDB 7.11
 
 * GDB now supports debugging kernel-based threads on FreeBSD.
