  This commit extends the CLI a bit for multi-target, in three ways.

#1 - New "info connections" command.

This is a new command that lists the open connections (process_stratum
targets).  For example, if you're debugging two remote connections, a
couple local/native processes, and a core dump, all at the same time,
you might see something like this:

 (gdb) info connections
   Num  What                     Description
   1    remote 192.168.0.1:9999  Remote serial target in gdb-specific protocol
   2    remote 192.168.0.2:9998  Remote serial target in gdb-specific protocol
 * 3    native                   Native process
   4    core                     Local core dump file

#2 - New "info inferiors" "Connection" column

You'll also see a new matching "Connection" column in "info
inferiors", showing you which connection an inferior is bound to:

 (gdb) info inferiors
   Num  Description       Connection                   Executable
   1    process 18526     1 (remote 192.168.0.1:9999)  target:/tmp/a.out
   2    process 18531     2 (remote 192.168.0.2:9998)  target:/tmp/a.out
   3    process 19115     3 (native)                   /tmp/prog1
   4    process 6286      4 (core)                     myprogram
 * 5    process 19122     3 (native)                   /bin/hello

#3 - Makes "add-inferior" show the inferior's target connection

"add-inferior" now shows you the connection you've just bound the
inferior to, which is the current process_stratum target:

 (gdb) add-inferior
 [New inferior 2]
 Added inferior 2 on connection 1 (extended-remote localhost:2346)
