Make sure gdb knows where the source files are, even when gdbclient.py
isn't being run from the root directory.

Python's subprocess.check_output() cwd argument does not change the PWD
environmental variable, which is what dumpvar.mk uses to turn relative
paths into absolute paths. This led to incorrect symbol paths when
gdbclient was not run from the root directory.
This CL fixes the bug by manually setting PWD before calling the
makefile. It's possible that dumpvar.mk should be using a different
method to get the current directory, but I was scared to change any
core build logic and this approach seems to work just fine.

gdbclient.py can sometimes attempt to connect to the server before it's
ready, especially when debugging on an emulator. This CL adds
functionality to retry the connection for up to 5 seconds.
