startup_with_shell was changed to be of "bool" type, but I noticed
that the definition in gdbserver disagreed.  This disagreement caused
some regressions on a big-endian machine.

This patch removes the redundant declaration and definition of
startup_with_shell and ensures that such clashes will be diagnosed.

I didn't know the best place to put the declaration and definition.
fork-inferior did not seem best, because it is conditionally compiled,
so I chose a generic spot instead.

I think common-inferior.{h,c} would be a better place.  It's where
get_exec_wrapper is, another common startun/run option, for example.
common-inferior.c doesn't exist yet, but there's no reason it can't exist.

Thanks,
Pedro Alves

Good idea -- I looked for something like this but I somehow missed it.
I sent v2 with this change.
