gdb/testsuite: skip gdb.threads/omp-par-scope.exp with clang

Since 2020 it has been reported to clang[1] that the debug information
around OpenMP is insufficient.  The OpenMP section is not declared
within the correct scope, and instead clang marks as if the section was
a function in the global scope.  This causes several failures in the
test gdb.threads/omp-par-scope.exp when using clang to test GDB.

Since this isn't a true failure of GDB, and there is little expectation
that clang will be able to fix this soon, this commit disables the
aforementioned test when clang is being used.
