Pedro Alves 92bcb5f949 Make display_gdb_prompt CLI-only.
Enabling target-async by default will require implementing sync
execution on top of an async target, much like foreground command are
implemented on the CLI in async mode.

In order to do that, we will need better control of when to print the
MI prompt.  Currently the interp->display_prompt_p hook is all we
have, and MI just always returns false, meaning, make
display_gdb_prompt a no-op.  We'll need to be able to know to print
the MI prompt in some of the conditions that display_gdb_prompt is
called from the core, but not all.

This is all a litte twisted currently.  As we can see,
display_gdb_prompt is really CLI specific, so make the console
interpreters (console/tui) themselves call it.  To be able to do that,
and add a few different observers that the interpreters can use to
distinguish when or why the the prompt is being printed:

#1 - one called whenever a command is cancelled due to an error.
#2 - another for when a foreground command just finished.

In both cases, CLI wants to print the prompt, while MI doesn't.

MI will want to print the prompt in the second case when in a special
MI mode.

The display_gdb_prompt call in interp_set made me pause.  The comment
there reads:

  /* Finally, put up the new prompt to show that we are indeed here.
     Also, display_gdb_prompt for the console does some readline magic
     which is needed for the console interpreter, at least...  */

But, that looks very much like a no-op to me currently:

 - the MI interpreter always return false in the prompt hook, meaning
   actually display no prompt.

 - the interpreter used at that point is still quiet.  And the
   console/tui interpreters return false in the prompt hook if they're
   quiet, meaning actually display no prompt.

The only remaining possible use would then be the readline magic.  But
whatever that might have been, it's not reacheable today either,
because display_gdb_prompt returns early, before touching readline if
the interpreter returns false in the display_prompt_p hook.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, sync and async modes.
