Implement proper "startup-with-shell" support on gdbserver

This patch implements the proper support for the "startup-with-shell"
feature on gdbserver.  A new packet is added, QStartupWithShell, and
it is sent on initialization.  If the host sends a
"QStartupWithShell:1", it means the inferior shall be started using a
shell.  If the host sends a "QStartupWithShell:0", it means the
inferior shall be started without using a shell.  Any other value is
considered an error.

There is no way to remotely set the shell that will be used by the
target to start the inferior.  In order to do that, the user must
start gdbserver while providing a shell via the $SHELL environment
variable.  The same is true for the host side.

The "set startup-with-shell" setting from the host side is used to
decide whether to start the remote inferior using a shell.  This same
setting is also used to decide whether to use a shell to start the
host inferior; this means that it is not really possible to start the
inferior using different mechanisms on target and host.

A documentation patch is included, along with a new testcase for the
feature.
