Currently, the version of gdb used on the host and the target are different for
microblaze and arc.  This is fixed by using a different method to specify the
version.

This fixes autobuild failure

I am not entirely happy with this change, because it handles
Microblaze/ARC in a different way than AVR32, while they are really the
same case.

And also because the code you're touching in gdb.mk has the following
comment on top of it:

# When no version is defined, it means that cross-gdb for the host has
# not been enabled, and we will only build gdbserver or gdb for the
# target. In this case, use the latest available version
# automatically.

However, this comment is no longer true: with your patch, for certain
architectures (Microblaze/ARC), we are *never* setting BR2_GDB_VERSION,
and therefore this piece of gdb.mk code is also used when cross-gdb is
enabled.

Therefore maybe we should:

 1/ Remove the version string for AVR32 in the definition of
    BR2_GDB_VERSION, like you did for Microblaze and ARC

 2/ Update the comment above the code you're changing in gdb.mk to
    explain what's going on.

 3/ Add a comment on top of BR2_GDB_VERSION that explains why we don't
    define a version string for some of the gdb versions.

Thanks!

Thomas
