Commit Message
I noticed that the interpreters node in the docs links to the DAP
protocol docs, but I thought the DAP node ought to as well. This
patch adds a bit of introductory text there.

@node Debugger Adapter Protocol
@chapter Debugger Adapter Protocol
+The Debugger Adapter Protocol is a generic API that is used by some
+IDEs to communicate with debuggers. It is documented at
+@url{https://microsoft.github.io/debug-adapter-protocol/}.
+
Generally, @value{GDBN} implements the Debugger Adapter Protocol as
written. However, in some cases, extensions are either needed or even
expected.
