Vincent Stehlé ca40efb4bd gdb: enable tui support for target package
Add a configuration option to compile the gdb target package with the
--enable-tui switch.

This is done pretty much in the same way as in commit 2474fb0bf1 ("host-gdb:
enable terminal user interface support"), but for the gdb package on target.

This makes sense only when a full debugger is installed on target,
not for a gdbserver.

[Thomas: remove "default n" since this is the default, adjust the
prompt of the option, and rewrap the help text.]

GDB, the GNU Project debugger, allows you to see what is
going on `inside' another program while it executes -- or
what another program was doing at the moment it crashed.
This option allows to build gdbserver and/or the gdb
debugger for the target.
For embedded development, the most common solution is to
build only 'gdbserver' for the target, and use a cross-gdb
on the host. See BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GDB in the Toolchain menu
to enable one. Notice that external toolchains often provide
their own pre-built cross-gdb and gdbserver binaries.

Build the gdbserver stub to run on the target.
A full gdb is needed to debug the progam.

This option enables terminal user interface (TUI) for gdb
"The GDB Text User Interface (TUI) is a terminal interface
which uses the curses library to show the source file, the
assembly output, the program registers and GDB commands in
separate text windows."
