Fix GDB crash after Quit thrown from unwinder sniffer
I ran into a GDB crash in gdb.base/bp-cmds-continue-ctrl-c.exp in my
multi-target branch, which turns out exposed a bug that exists in
master too.
That testcase has a breakpoint with a "continue" command associated.
Then the breakpoint is constantly being hit. At the same time, the
testcase is continualy interrupting the program with Ctrl-C, and
re-resuming it, in a loop.
Running that testcase manually under Valgrind, after a few sequences
of 'Ctrl-C' + 'continue', I got:

Above, when we get to compute_frame_id, fi->unwind is non-NULL,
meaning, we found an unwinder, in this case the Python unwinder, but
somehow, fi->prologue_cache is left NULL. pyuw_this_id then crashes
because it assumes fi->prologue_cache is non-NULL:
static void
pyuw_this_id (struct frame_info *this_frame, void **cache_ptr,
struct frame_id *this_id)
{
*this_id = ((cached_frame_info *) *cache_ptr)->frame_id;
^^^^^^^^^^
'*cache_ptr' here is 'fi->prologue_cache'.
There's a quit() call in pyuw_sniffer that I believe is the one that
sometimes triggers the crash above. The crash can be reproduced
easily with this hack to force a quit out of the python unwinder:

After that quit is thrown, any subsequent operation that involves
unwinding results in GDB crashing with SIGSEGV like above.
The problem is that this commit:
commit 30a9c02feff56bd58a276c2a7262f364baa558ac
CommitDate: Sun Oct 8 23:16:42 2017 -0600
Subject: Remove cleanup from frame_prepare_for_sniffer
missed that we need to call frame_cleanup_after_sniffer before
rethrowing the exception too.
Without the fix, the "bt" added to
gdb.base/bp-cmds-continue-ctrl-c.exp in this commit makes GDB crash:
