gdb: Workaround bad gdbserver qSupported:xmlRegisters=i386;UnknwnFeat+ handling
gdbserver's target_process_qsupported is called for each feature that
the gdbserver common code does not recognize. The only current
implementation, for x86 Linux, does this:
static void
x86_linux_process_qsupported (const char *query)
{
/* Return if gdb doesn't support XML. If gdb sends "xmlRegisters="
with "i386" in qSupported query, it supports x86 XML target
descriptions. */
use_xml = 0;
if (query != NULL && startswith (query, "xmlRegisters="))
{
char *copy = xstrdup (query + 13);
char *p;
for (p = strtok (copy, ","); p != NULL; p = strtok (NULL, ","))
{
if (strcmp (p, "i386") == 0)
{
use_xml = 1;
break;
}
}
free (copy);
}
x86_linux_update_xmltarget ();
}
Notice that this clears use_xml and calls x86_linux_update_xmltarget
each time target_process_qsupported is called. So if gdb sends in any
unknown feature after "xmlRegisters=i386", like e.g.,
"xmlRegisters=i386;UnknownFeature+" gdbserver ends up not reporting a
XML description...
Work around this by having GDB send the "xmlRegisters=" feature last.

* remote.c (remote_query_supported): Send the "xmlRegisters="
feature last.
