Allow enabling/disabling breakpoint location ranges

When a breakpoint has multiple locations, like e.g.:

 Num  Type       Disp Enb  Address    What
 1    breakpoint keep y    <MULTIPLE>
 1.1                  y    0x080486a2 in void foo<int>()...
 1.2                  y    0x080486ca in void foo<double>()...
 [....]
 1.5                  y    0x080487fa in void foo<long>()...

it's possible to enable/disable the individual locations using the
'<breakpoint_number>.<location_number>' syntax, like e.g.:

 (gdb) disable 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5

That's inconvenient when you have a long list of locations to disable,
however.

This patch adds shorthand for the above, by making it possible to
specify a range of locations with the following syntax (similar to
thread id ranges):

 <breakpoint_number>.<first_location_number>-<last_location_number>

For example, the command above can now be simplified to:

 (gdb) disable 1.2-5

 It's quite common to have a breakpoint inside a shared library.
