Review Request 121442: gdb: Refactoring of GDB/MI and state tracking (work in progress)

[Nicolai Hähnle-Montoro]

Hi Andreas,

it would be great if you could take care of that! I should warn you
though: I've noticed that the BreakpointController (in kdevelop) and
the IBreakpointController (in kdevplatform) have an unhealthily tight
coupling: BreakpointController is derived from and directly accesses
member variables of IBreakpointController (not to mention that it is
strange that a class called an "interface" has member variables in the
first place).

AFAIU, now is the time to make binary compatibility changes in the
respective master branches, and I would like to use that opportunity
to clear the situation up.

All my changes so far should be back-portable, but I expect some
changes fairly soon that are not portable because they require
breaking binary compatibility.

Cheers,
Nicolai
