  Adds riscv_linux_nat_target::read_description method to find a
suitable target description for the native linux target we are running
on.

Currently this will supply a suitably sized set of x-registers, and
will probe the kernel to see if the f-registers are readable.  If they
are readable then we currently assume that the f-registers are the
same size as the x-registers as I don't know of a good way to probe
the f-register length.  This will obviously need fixing in future.

As of Linux 4.19 there is no ptrace support for reading the
f-registers, this should appear in 4.20, so right now we only return
target descriptions without f-registers.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* riscv-linux-nat.c: Add 'inferior.h' and 'target-descriptions.h'
	header files.
	(riscv_linux_nat_target::read_description): New method.

I tried the new patch set on my HiFive Unleashed and it does solve the
problem.  The gdb testsuite results on my board look good now.
