Add support for debugging ART to the dalvik.gdb script.

This adds two commands:

art-on
art-off

To the gdbclient script for debugging ART-based executables in gdb.
The default is 'art-on'

document art-on
Enter ART debugging mode. In ART debugging mode, SIGSEGV signals are ignored
by gdb unless they are not handled by ART itself. A breakpoint is
set to stop the program when an unexpected SIGSEGV signal is
encountered.
To switch ART debugging mode off, use "art-off"
end
define art-off
if $art_debug_enabled == 1
# restore SIGSEGV to its default
handle SIGSEGV print stop pass
# delete our breakpoint
delete $art_bpnum
set $art_debug_enabled = 0
printf "ART debugging mode is disabled.\n"
end
end
document art-off
Leave ART debugging mode. Signal handling is restored to default settings.
Use the command "art-on" to enable ART debugging mode.
end
