gdb: LoongArch: Improve the handling of atomic sequenceHEADmaster

In the current code, when using software single-step to debug atomic
instruction sequence, the execution of the atomic instruction sequence
may not be completed normally.

Here is a test with setting a software watchpoint to execute in software
single-step mode:

$ cat test.c
int a = 0;
int main()
  {
    a = 1;
    return 0;
  }
$ gcc -g test.c -o test
$ gdb test
..
(gdb) start
..
Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:4
4	    a = 1;
(gdb) set can-use-hw-watchpoints 0
(gdb) n
5	    return 0;
(gdb) watch a
Watchpoint 2: a
(gdb) c
Continuing.

At this point, the program continues to execute and can not exit
normally because it incorrectly handled the following ll/sc atomic
sequence in __run_exit_handlers () from /lib64/libc.so.6 during
software single-step execution.

   0x00007ffff7df7a48 <+408>:	ld.d        	$t1, $s2, 1776
   0x00007ffff7df7a4c <+412>:	ll.w        	$t0, $t1, 0
=> 0x00007ffff7df7a50 <+416>:	bne         	$t0, $zero, 20	# 0x7ffff7df7a64 <__run_exit_handlers+436>
   0x00007ffff7df7a54 <+420>:	or          	$t3, $zero, $s4
   0x00007ffff7df7a58 <+424>:	sc.w        	$t3, $t1, 0
   0x00007ffff7df7a5c <+428>:	beq         	$zero, $t3, -16	# 0x7ffff7df7a4c <__run_exit_handlers+412>
   0x00007ffff7df7a60 <+432>:	b           	8	# 0x7ffff7df7a68 <__run_exit_handlers+440>
   0x00007ffff7df7a64 <+436>:	dbar        	0x700
   0x00007ffff7df7a68 <+440>:	slli.w      	$t0, $t0, 0x0

The root cause of this problem is that a breakpoint was inserted in the
middle of ll/sc atomic sequence during software single-step execution.
The execution result of the atomic instruction sequence is disrupted,
causing the program unable to complete the execution of the atomic
instruction sequence normally.

Further explanation, if the current pc is 0x00007ffff7df7a50, it is a
conditional branch instruction, breakpoint should only be set at the
jump destination address (0x00007ffff7df7a64, which is outside of the
ll/sc atomic instruction sequence) and should not set at the address
of pc + 4 (0x00007ffff7df7a54, which is in the middle of ll/sc atomic
sequence).

Modify a judgment condition in loongarch_deal_with_atomic_sequence()
to ensure that breakpoints can not be inserted in the middle of ll/sc
atomic sequence to address such issues.
