Running gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp on Cygwin, where
GDBserver does not support non-stop mode, I see:
FAIL: gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp: target_non_stop=off: info threads
FAIL: gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp: target_non_stop=on: attach to the program via remote (timeout)
FAIL: gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp: target_non_stop=on: info threads (timeout)
Let's ignore the first "info threads" fail. The timeouts look like
this:
builtin_spawn /home/alves/gdb-cache-cygwin/gdb/../gdbserver/gdbserver --once --multi localhost:2346
Listening on port 2346
target extended-remote localhost:2346
Remote debugging using localhost:2346
Non-stop mode requested, but remote does not support non-stop

info threads
FAIL: gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp: target_non_stop=on: info threads (timeout)
Note the "Non-stop mode requested, but remote does not support
non-stop" line.
The intro to gdb_target_cmd_ext says:
# gdb_target_cmd_ext
# Send gdb the "target" command. Returns 0 on success, 1 on failure, 2 on
# unsupported.
That's perfect here, we can just use gdb_target_cmd_ext instead of
gdb_target_cmd, and check for 2 (unsupported). That's what this patch
does.
However gdb_target_cmd_ext incorrectly returns 1 instead of 2 for the
case where the remote target says it does not support non-stop. That
is also fixed by this patch.
With this, we no longer get those timeout fails. We get instead:
target extended-remote localhost:2346
Remote debugging using localhost:2346
Non-stop mode requested, but remote does not support non-stop
