gdbstub: Don't use GDB syscalls if no GDB is attached
In two places in gdbstub.c we look at gdbserver_state.init to decide
whether we're going to do a semihosting syscall via the gdb remote
protocol:
* when setting up, if the user didn't explicitly select either
native semihosting or gdb semihosting, we autoselect, with the
intended behaviour "use gdb if gdb is connected"
* when the semihosting layer attempts to do a syscall via gdb, we
silently ignore it if the gdbstub wasn't actually set up
However, if the user's commandline sets up the gdbstub but tells QEMU
to start rather than waiting for a GDB to connect (eg using '-s' but
not '-S'), then we will have gdbserver_state.init true but no actual
connection; an attempt to use gdb syscalls will then crash because we
try to use gdbserver_state.c_cpu when it hasn't been set up:

You can probably also get into this state via some odd
corner cases involving connecting a GDB and then telling it
to detach from all the vCPUs.
Abstract out the test into a new gdb_attached() function
which returns true only if there's actually a GDB connected
to the debug stub and attached to at least one vCPU.
