[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/gdb: Disable gdbserver if full gdb is enabled for ARC

[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/gdb: Disable gdbserver if full gdb is enabled for ARC

[Evgeniy Didin]

With recent update of ARC toolchain to arc-2019.09-eng/rc1 versions
GDB package builds started to fail in autobuilder:
 http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/bc5/bc52d0012944e15dee30a6e00a92f23c87d0dfda//

This error was caused by 73cc72729a18 ("Move gnulib to top level")
commit in binutils-gdb master branch and appears in ARC case because
arc-2019.09 GDB is based on binutils-gdb master branch and includes
this commit.
