Pedro Alves 2f9d54cfce make -gdb-exit call disconnect_tracing too, and don't lose history if the target errors on "quit"
Gareth mentions in PR gdb/15275:

 "The MI '-gdb-exit' command mi_cmd_gdb_exit() never calls disconnect_tracing()
 and therefore exits correctly."

It should, so to get out of tfind mode, as quit may detach instead of
kill, and we don't want to confuse the memory/register accesses
etc. of the detach process.  So we should push down the disconnect
tracing bits at least to quit_force.  But we can't as is, as that
would swallow the error thrown by answering "no" to:

  Trace is running but will stop on detach; detach anyway? (y or n)

So to address that, we split disconnect_tracing in two.  One part that
does the query, and another part that does the rest, and we make
quit_force call the latter.

Looking at quit_force, it does several things, some of which are a bit
independent of the others.  It first kills/detaches, and then writes
history, and then runs the final cleanups.  It seems better to me to
do each of these things even if the previous thing throws.  E.g., as
is, if something throws while detaching, then we skip writing history.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

	* cli/cli-cmds.c (quit_command): Call query_if_trace_running
	instead of disconnect_tracing.
	* infcmd.c (detach_command, disconnect_command): Call
	query_if_trace_running.  Adjust.
	* top.c: Include "tracepoint.h".
	(quit_target): Delete.  Contents moved ...
	(quit_force): ... here.  Wrap each stage of teardown in
	TRY_CATCH.  Call disconnect_tracing before detaching.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
