python: Introduce gdb.RecordAuxiliary class.
Auxiliary instructions are no real instructions and get their own object
class, similar to gaps. gdb.Record.instruction_history is now possibly a
list of gdb.RecordInstruction, gdb.RecordGap or gdb.RecordAuxiliary
objects.
This patch is in preparation for the new ptwrite feature, which is based on
auxiliary instructions.
