Pedro Alves 906d60cf46 PR13858 - Can't do displaced stepping with no symbols
Running break-interp.exp with the target always in non-stop mode trips
on PR13858, as enabling non-stop also enables displaced stepping.

The problem is that when GDB doesn't know where the entry point is, it
doesn't know where to put the displaced stepping scratch pad.  The
test added by this commit exercises this.  Without the fix, we get:

 (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/step-over-no-symbols.exp: displaced=on: break *$pc
 set displaced-stepping on
 (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/step-over-no-symbols.exp: displaced=on: set displaced-stepping on
 stepi
 0x00000000004005be in ?? ()
 Entry point address is not known.
 (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/step-over-no-symbols.exp: displaced=on: stepi
 p /x $pc
 $2 = 0x4005be
 (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/step-over-no-symbols.exp: displaced=on: get after PC
 FAIL: gdb.base/step-over-no-symbols.exp: displaced=on: advanced

The fix switches all GNU/Linux ports to get the entry point from
AT_ENTRY in the target auxiliary vector instead of from symbols.  This
is currently only done by PPC when Cell debugging is enabled, but I
think all archs should be able to do the same.  Note that
ppc_linux_displaced_step_location cached the result, I'm guessing to
avoid constantly re-fetching the auxv out of remote targets, but
that's no longer necessary nowadays, as the auxv blob is itself cached
in the inferior object.  The ppc_linux_entry_point_addr global is
obviously bad for multi-process too nowadays.

Tested on x86-64 (-m64/-m32), PPC64 (-m64/-m32) and S/390 GNU/Linux.
Yao tested the new test on ARM as well.
