source annotation now prints source line

Hi,

When the source annotation is sent to the front end, the source line
is now also sent to the front end console. I believe this commit
introduced it,
  https://github.com/bminor/binutils-gdb/commit/ec8e2b6d3051f0b4b2a8eee9917898e95046c62f

Now CGDB displays,
    (gdb) n
    43          int i = 3;
    (gdb) 

Instead of,
    (gdb) n
    (gdb) 

CGDB is a front end, and so it has a source view to display the code to
the user. Why did GDB decide to also print the line of code to the front
end's console window as well? This is confusing.

Thanks,
Bob Rossi
