Tom de Vries d472f0fbaa [gdb/testsuite] Add target board debug-types
This patch adds a target board debug-types that switches on
-fdebug-types-section by default.

This -fdebug-types-section option is a gcc option that enables the generation
of a .debug_types section, which is only effective for DWARF version 4.

There are two other boards that enable this: dwarf4-gdb-index and fisson, but
while those test some meaningful combination of options, this board is
intended to test only -fdebug-types-section.

Current results with gcc 7.5.0 are:
