PR record/18691: Fix fails in solib-precsave.exp

We see the following regressions in testing on x86_64-linux,

 reverse-step^M
 Cannot access memory at address 0x2aaaaaed26c0^M
 (gdb) FAIL: gdb.reverse/solib-precsave.exp: reverse-step into solib function one

when GDB reverse step into a function, GDB wants to skip prologue so
it requests TARGET_OBJECT_CODE_MEMORY to read some code memory in
memory_xfer_partial_1.  However in dcache_read_memory_partial, the object
becomes TARGET_OBJECT_MEMORY

      return ops->to_xfer_partial (ops, TARGET_OBJECT_MEMORY, NULL,
                                   myaddr, NULL, memaddr, len,
                                   xfered_len);

in reverse debugging, ops->to_xfer_partial is record_full_core_xfer_partial
and it will return TARGET_XFER_E_IO because it can't find any records.
The test fails.

At this moment, the delegate relationship is like

  dcache -> record-core -> core -> exec

and we want to GDB read memory across targets, which means if the
requested memory isn't found in record-core, GDB can read memory from
core, and exec even further if needed.  I find raw_memory_xfer_partial
is exactly what I want.
