gdb/doc: Remove mention of vCont's default actions
Discussion with qemu folks suggests that the vCont description could be even simpler and clearer. Given we now say: For each inferior thread, the leftmost action with a matching thread-id is applied. There's really no need to even talk about "default" actions, which raises doubts about whether "default" is special in some way (it's not). See <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-10/msg06944.html>. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: 2016-10-29 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdb.texinfo (Packets) <vCont>: Remove mention of default actions.
