Tom de Vries f59f30f557 [gdb/testsuite] Fix "unable to find usable gdb" error with cc-with-tweaks.exp
When running fullpath-expand.exp with target_board=dwarf4-gdb-index, we run
into:
...
$ make check-gdb RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=dwarf4-gdb-index fullpath-expand.exp"
Running src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/fullpath-expand.exp ...
gdb compile failed, cc-with-tweaks.sh: unable to find usable gdb

                === gdb Summary ===

nr of untested testcases         1
...
The same happens with fullname.exp.

The dwarf4-gdb-index.exp board file includes cc-with-tweaks.exp, which uses
cc-with-tweaks.sh, which calls gdb-add-index.sh.

The gdb-add-index.sh script uses a gdb executable, defaulting to gdb:
...
GDB=${GDB:=gdb}
...

The cc-with-tweaks.sh script tries to ensure that the build gdb executable is
used by gdb-add-index.sh:
...
if [ -z "$GDB" ]
then
    if [ -f ./gdb ]
    then
	GDB="./gdb -data-directory data-directory"
    elif [ -f ../gdb ]
    then
	GDB="../gdb -data-directory ../data-directory"
    elif [ -f ../../gdb ]
    then
	GDB="../../gdb -data-directory ../../data-directory"
    else
	echo "$myname: unable to find usable gdb" >&2
	exit 1
    fi
fi
...
So, if the current directory is build/gdb/testsuite, then a gdb executable
build/gdb/testsuite/../gdb will be used.

However, in the case of fullpath-expand.exp the test cd's into the sources:
...
set saved_pwd [pwd]
cd $srcdir
set err [gdb_compile "${subdir}/${srcfile} ${subdir}/${srcfile2}" $binfile \
         executable {debug}]
cd $saved_pwd
...
and cc-with-tweaks.sh generates the "unable to find usable gdb" error.

The same error occurs if we use --target_board=cc-with-dwz instead (only in
this case we actually don't need gdb, we just need the GDB variable to be set
in cc-with-tweaks.sh, which arguably is a bug in cc-with-tweaks.sh).

Fix both errors in cc-with-tweaks.exp by generating a gdb script gdb.sh using
$GDB, $GDBFLAGS and $INTERNAL_GDBFLAGS and passing this script to
cc-with-tweaks.sh by setting env(GDB).

Tested on x86_64-linux for gdb.base.

	* boards/cc-with-tweaks.exp: Generate gdb.sh, and pass it in env(GDB).

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
