[PATCH v11 08/10] gdb, mi: Skip trampoline functions for the -stack-list-frames command.

This change skips trampoline functions for the '-stack-list-frames' command
when the option 'skip-trampoline-functions' is set to 'on'.  Before this
change, GDB prints the frames indicated by the compiler with DIE
"DW_AT_trampoline" in the backtrace for mi command stack-list-frames, but
for better user experience, all such frames can be hidden from the user.

In this example the IFX compiler emits "DW_AT_trampoline" tag for the 'first'
and 'second' trampoline functions like following:

function second (x, y) result(z)
  integer, intent(in) :: x, y
  integer :: z
  z = x * y ! breakpt-backtrace
end function second

function first (num1, num2) result(total)
  integer, intent(in) :: num1, num2
  integer  :: total
  total = second (num1 + 4, num2 * 3) ! first-breakpt
  total = total + 30
end function first

Before this change, the '-stack-list-frames' command output looks like:

'''

fullname="/home/test.f90",line="17",arch="i386:x86-64"}]
'''

After this change:

'''

^done,
stack=[frame={level="0",addr="0x0000000000405194",func="second",

New test gdb.mi/mi-func-trampoline.exp is added for testing the change.
