When starting a remote connection GDB sends an '+':
/* Ack any packet which the remote side has already sent. */
remote_serial_write ("+", 1);
which gets flagged as a garbage character in the gdbstub state
machine. As gdb does send it out lets be permissive about the handling
so we can better see real issues.

Previously, qemu-user would always report PID 1 to GDB. This was changed
at dc14a7a6e9 (gdbstub: Report the actual qemu-user pid, 2023-06-30),
but read_thread_id() still considers GDB packets with "no PID" as "PID
1", which is not the qemu-user PID. Fix that by parsing "no PID" as "0",
which the GDB Remote Protocol defines as "any process".
Note that this should have no effect for system emulation as, in this
case, gdb_create_default_process() will assign PID 1 for the first
process and that is what the gdbstub uses for GDB requests with no PID,
or PID 0.
This issue was found with hexagon-lldb, which sends a "Hg" packet with
only the thread-id, but no process-id, leading to the invalid usage of
"PID 1" by qemu-hexagon and a subsequent "E22" reply.

The gdb remote protocol has a special interrupt character (0x03) that is
transmitted outside the regular packet processing, and represents a
Ctrl-C pressed in the client. Despite not being a regular packet, it
does expect a regular stop response if the stub successfully stops the
running program.
See: https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Interrupts.html
Inhibiting the stop reply packet can lead to gdb client hang. So permit
a stop response when receiving a character from gdb that stops the vm.
Additionally, add a warning if that was not a 0x03 character, because
the gdb session is likely to end up getting confused if this happens.

Currently the GDB's generate-core-file command doesn't work well with
qemu-user: the resulting dumps are huge [1] and at the same time
incomplete (argv and envp are missing). The reason is that GDB has no
access to proc mappings and therefore has to fall back to using
heuristics for discovering them. This is, in turn, because qemu-user
does not implement the Host I/O feature of the GDB Remote Serial
Protocol.
Implement vFile:{open,close,pread,readlink} and also
qXfer:exec-file:read+. With that, generate-core-file begins to work on
aarch64 and s390x.

GDB's remote serial protocol allows stop-reply messages to be sent by
the stub either as a notification packet or as a reply to a GDB command
(provided that the cmd accepts such a response). QEMU currently does not
implement notification packets, so it should only send stop-replies
synchronously and when requested. Nevertheless, it still issues
unsolicited stop messages through gdb_vm_state_change().
Although this behavior doesn't seem to cause problems with GDB itself
(the messages are just ignored), it can impact other debuggers that
implement the GDB remote serial protocol, like hexagon-lldb. Let's
change the gdbstub to send stop messages only as a response to a
previous GDB command that accepts such a reply.

Our GDB syscall support is the last chunk of code that needs target
specific support so move it to a new file. We take the opportunity to
move the syscall state into its own singleton instance and add in a
few helpers for the main gdbstub to interact with the module.
I also moved the gdb_exit() declaration into syscalls.h as it feels
pretty related and most of the callers of it treat it as such.

The process was pretty similar to the softmmu move except we take the
time to split stuff between user.c and user-target.c to avoid as much
target specific compilation as possible. We also start to make use of
our shiny new header scheme so the user-only helpers can be included
without the rest of the exec/gsbstub.h cruft.
As before we split some functions into user and softmmu versions

replay API is used deeply within TCG common code (common to user
and system emulation). Unfortunately "sysemu/replay.h" requires
some QAPI headers for few system-specific declarations, example:
void replay_input_event(QemuConsole *src, InputEvent *evt);
Since commit c2651c0eaa ("qapi/meson: Restrict UI module to system
emulation and tools") the QAPI header defining the InputEvent is
not generated anymore.
To keep it simple, extract the 'core' replay prototypes to a new
"exec/replay-core.h" header which we include in the TCG code that
doesn't need the rest of the replay API.

Both insert/remove_breakpoint() handlers are used in system and
user emulation. We can not use the 'hwaddr' type on user emulation,
we have to use 'vaddr' which is defined as "wide enough to contain
any #target_ulong virtual address".
gdbstub.c doesn't require to include "exec/hwaddr.h" anymore.

As HW virtualization requires specific support to handle breakpoints
lets push out special casing out of the core gdbstub code and into
AccelOpsClass. This will make it easier to add other accelerator
