Fix gdb.base/a2-run.exp race
This patch fixes this racy failure, with the native-extended-gdbserver
board:

Child exited with status 1
Note that the output is correct; it's just that inferior output
appeared after gdb's output, and the test doesn't handle that
correctly.
This comment isn't really correct, unfortunately:
# waiting. If we had already seen the status wrapper exit,
# gdb_test_multiple/expect has no spawn ids left, and thus
# returns.
That's true of expect in general, but I had missed / forgot that
gdb_test_multiple internally has extra matches using "-i
$gdb_spawn_id", so even if the caller clears all the indirect spawn id
lists, gdb_test_multiple will continue waiting.
So do a conditional exp_continue manually instead.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2015-10-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* gdb.base/a2-run.exp (maybe_exp_continue): New procedure.
(top level): Use it in the run with no args test.
