Pedro Alves 20e1ca3bc1 UNWIND_NULL_ID is no longer used anywhere. Update comments.
Unfortunately, UNWIND_NULL_ID is exported to Python as
gdb.FRAME_UNWIND_NULL_ID so we can't really eliminate it.

(I'd assume scripts just check the result of Frame.unwind_stop_reason,
and compare it to gdb.FRAME_UNWIND_NO_REASON.  That at most, they'll
pass the result of Frame.unwind_stop_reason to
gdb.frame_stop_reason_string.  I'd prefer to just get rid of it, but
because we make an API promise, we get to keep this around for
compatibility, in case a script does refer to gdb.FRAME_UNWIND_NULL_ID
directly.)
