gdbstub: only send stop-reply packets when allowed to

GDB's remote serial protocol allows stop-reply messages to be sent by
the stub either as a notification packet or as a reply to a GDB command
(provided that the cmd accepts such a response). QEMU currently does not
implement notification packets, so it should only send stop-replies
synchronously and when requested. Nevertheless, it still issues
unsolicited stop messages through gdb_vm_state_change().

Although this behavior doesn't seem to cause problems with GDB itself
(the messages are just ignored), it can impact other debuggers that
implement the GDB remote serial protocol, like hexagon-lldb. Let's
change the gdbstub to send stop messages only as a response to a
previous GDB command that accepts such a reply.
