Previously we would persist the flags indicating whether the remote side
supports a particular feature across reconnects, which is obviously not
a good idea.
I implement the clearing by nuking (its the only way to be sure :) the
entire GDBRemoteCommunication object in the disconnect operation and
creating a new one upon connection. This allows us to maintain a nice
invariant that the GDBRemoteCommunication object (which is now a
pointer) exists only if it is connected. The downside to that is that a
lot of functions now needs to check the validity of the pointer instead
of blindly accessing the object.
The process communication does not suffer from the same issue because we
always destroy the entire Process object for a relaunch.

This is a preparatory commit to enable mocking of qemu startup. That
will involve running the mock server in a separate process, so there's
no need for multithreading.
Initialization is moved from the start function into the constructor
(which can then take an actual socket instead of a class), and the run
method is made public.
Depends on D114156.

This infrastructure has proven proven its worth, so give it a more
prominent place.
My immediate motivation for this is the desire to reuse this
infrastructure for qemu platform testing, but I believe this move makes
sense independently of that. Moving this code to the packages tree will
allow as to add more structure to the gdb client tests -- currently they
are all crammed into the same test folder as that was the only way they
could access this code.
I'm splitting the code into two parts while moving it. The first once
contains just the generic gdb protocol wrappers, while the other one
contains the unit test glue. The reason for that is that for qemu
testing, I need to run the gdb code in a separate process, so I will
only be using the first part there.
