Simon Marchi 7831bc9185 gdb: remove get_exec_file
I believe that the get_exec_file function is unnecessary, and the code
can be simplified if we remove it.

Consider for instance when you "run" a program on Linux with native
debugging.

 1. run_command_1 obtains the executable file from
    `current_program_space->exec_filename ()`
 2. it passes it to `run_target->create_inferior()`, which is
    `inf_ptrace_target::create_inferior()` in this case, which then
    passes it to `fork_inferior()`
 3. `fork_inferior()` then has a fallback, where if the passed exec file
    is nullptr, it gets its from `get_exec_file()`.
 4. `get_exec_file()` returns `current_program_space->exec_filename ()`
    - just like the things we started with - or errors out if the
    current program space doesn't have a specified executable.

If there's no exec filename passed in step 1, there's not going to be
any in step 4, so it seems pointless to call `get_exec_file()`, we could
just error out when `exec_file` is nullptr.  But we can't error out
directly in `fork_inferior()`, since the error is GDB-specific, and that
function is shared with GDBserver.

Speaking of GDBserver, all code paths that lead to `fork_inferior()`
provide a non-nullptr exec file.

Therefore, to simplify things:

 - Make `fork_inferior()` assume that the passed exec file is not
   nullptr, don't call `get_exec_file()`
 - Change some targets (darwin-nat, go32-nat, gnu-nat, inf-ptrace,
   nto-procfs, procfs) to error out when the exec file passed to their
   create_inferior method is nullptr.  Some targets are fine with a
   nullptr exec file, so we can't check that in `run_command_1()`.
 - Add the `no_executable_specified_error()` function, which re-uses the
   error message that `get_exec_file()` had.
 - Change some targets (go32-nat, nto-procfs) to not call
   `get_exec_file()`, since it's pointless for the same reason as in the
   example above, if it returns, it's going the be the same value as the
   `exec_file` parameter.  Just rely on `exec_file`.
 - Remove the final use of `get_exec_file()`, in `load_command()`.
 - Remove the `get_exec_file()` implementations in GDB and GDBserver and
   remove the shared declaration.
