gdb: add test for readline handling very long commands

The test added in this commit tests for a long fixed readline issue
relating to long command lines.  A similar patch has existed in the
Fedora GDB tree for several years, but I don't see any reason why this
test would not be suitable for inclusion in upstream GDB.  I've
updated the patch to current testsuite standards.

The test is checking for an issue that was fixed by this readline
patch:

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-readline/2006-11/msg00002.html

Which was merged into readline 6.0 (released ~2010).  The issue was
triggered when the user enters a long command line, which wrapped over
multiple terminal lines.  The crash looks like this:

  free(): invalid pointer

  ---------------------

I recreated the above crash by a little light hacking on GDB, and then
linking GDB against readline 5.2.  The above stack trace was generated
from the test included in this patch, and matches the trace that was
included in the original bug report.

It is worth acknowledging that without hacking things GDB has a
minimum requirement of readline 7.0.  This test is not about checking
whether GDB has been built against an older version of readline, it is
about checking that readline doesn't regress in this area.
