Markus Metzger aef929023e btrace: pretend we're not replaying when generating a core file
When generating a core file using the "generate-core-file" command while
replaying with the btrace record target, we won't be able to access all
registers and all memory.  This leads to the following assertion:

    gdb/regcache.c:1034: internal-error: regcache_raw_supply: Assertion `regnum >= 0 && regnum < regcache->descr->nr_raw_registers' failed.
    A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
    further debugging may prove unreliable.
    Quit this debugging session? (y or n) FAIL: gdb.btrace/gcore.exp: generate-core-file core (GDB internal error)
    Resyncing due to internal error.

Pretend that we are not replaying while generating a core file.  This will
forward fetch and store registers as well as xfer memory calls to the target
beneath.
