Fix accessing a function's fields (parameters) from Python (PR 18073)

Since 7.4, gdb doesn't allow calling .fields() on a function type, even
though the documentation states it should return a list corresponding to
the function's parameters.  This patch restores the intended behaviour
and adds a test for it.

Reg-tested on Arch Linux x86-64.
