A following patch will make GDB put spawned inferiors in their own
terminal/session (on GNU/Linux). In that case, GDB is in control of
when is the inferior's output flushed to the screen. A sync point is
when target_terminal state goes from inferior -> ours/ours_for_output.
The gdb.multi/multi-term-settings.exp testcase exposed a bug where an
inferior output flush is missing, resulting in this regression:

Notice the "<<<<<< HERE" line in the "Bad" output above -- that is
inferior output being printed on the screen _after_ GDB says the
thread stopped... That's obviously bogus, the output was printed by
the inferior before it was stopped.
The fix is to claim back the terminal for output before printing the
"signal received SIGTTOU" message.

* infrun.c (normal_stop): Call target_terminal::ours_for_output
before calling signal_received observers.
