gdb sim testing, set gdb_protocol to "sim"

Bernd reported that when testing with riscv-unknown-elf target using
the simulator, before commit c7a2ee649115 ("gdb_is_target_native ->
gdb_protocol_is_native"), he had:

 PASS: gdb.base/load-command.exp: probe for target native
 PASS: gdb.base/load-command.exp: check initial value of the_variable
 PASS: gdb.base/load-command.exp: manually change the_variable
 PASS: gdb.base/load-command.exp: check manually changed value of the_variable
 PASS: gdb.base/load-command.exp: reload: re-load binary
 PASS: gdb.base/load-command.exp: reload: check initial value of the_variable

and now:

 UNSUPPORTED: gdb.base/load-command.exp: the native target does not support the load command

The problem is that the sim board/config isn't setting gdb_protocol
anywhere, so gdb_protocol_is_native returns true.

This commit fixes it by making gdb/testsuite/config/sim.exp set
gdb_protocol to "sim".
