  Osabi is an option field in target descriptors, according to:
https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Target-Description-Format.html

However, removing the osabi field from the i386 and amd64 target descriptors
will cause gdbserver to assert. This is code I used to test (not for
committing!) :

As we are in C++, I prefer nullptr.

The following patch fixes this error.

Tested with gdbserver on x86 and also on aarch64 with my target descriptor patch.
Also ran make check on x86 with unix and native-gdbserver.

gdbserver
	* tdesc.c (tdesc_get_features_xml): Allow null osabi.
