Stefan Hajnoczi 3a586d2f0b .gdbinit: load QEMU sub-commands when gdb starts
The scripts/qemu-gdb.py file is not easily discoverable.  Add a .gdbinit
file so GDB either loads qemu-gdb.py automatically or prints a message
informing the user how to enable them (some systems disable ./.gdbinit
loading for security reasons).

Symlink .gdbinit and the scripts directory in order to make out-of-tree
builds work.  The scripts directory is used to find the qemu-gdb.py file
specified by a relative path in .gdbinit.

# GDB may have ./.gdbinit loading disabled by default. In that case you can
# follow the instructions it prints. They boil down to adding the following to
# your home directory's ~/.gdbinit file:
#
# add-auto-load-safe-path /path/to/qemu/.gdbinit
# Load QEMU-specific sub-commands and settings
