GDB commit a207f6b3a38 ('Rewrite "python" command exception handling')
changed how exit() called from Python scripts loaded by GDB behave,
turning it into an exception instead of a generic error code that is
returned. This change caused several QEMU tests to crash with the
following exception:
Python Exception <class 'SystemExit'>: 0
Error occurred in Python: 0
This happens because in tests/guest-debug/test_gdbstub.py exit is
called after the tests have completed.
This commit fixes it by politely asking GDB to exit via gdb.execute,
passing the proper fail_count to be reported to 'make', instead of
abruptly calling exit() from the Python script.

Both the report() function as well as the initial gdbstub test sequence
are copy-pasted into ~10 files with slight modifications. This
indicates that they are indeed generic, so factor them out. While
at it, add a few newlines to make the formatting closer to PEP-8.
