    Pass INTERNAL_GDBFLAGS when executing GDB
    
    gdb.debuginfod/fetch_src_and_symbols.exp attempts to ascertain
    whether GDB was built with debuginfod support by executing
    "$GDB --configuration".
    
    That seems harmless enough. However, if GDB is not already installed
    on the host, the command will fail:
    
    $ ./gdb --config
    Exception caught while booting Guile.
    Error in function "open-file":
    No such file or directory: "/usr/share/gdb/guile/gdb/boot.scm"
    ./gdb: warning: Could not complete Guile gdb module initialization from:
    /usr/share/gdb/guile/gdb/boot.scm.
    Limited Guile support is available.
    Suggest passing --data-directory=/path/to/gdb/data-directory.
    Python Exception <class 'ModuleNotFoundError'> No module named 'gdb':
    ./gdb: warning:
    Could not load the Python gdb module from `/usr/share/gdb/python'.
    Limited Python support is available from the _gdb module.
    Suggest passing --data-directory=/path/to/gdb/data-directory.
    This GDB was configured as follows:
       configure --host=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu --target=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu
          [abbreviated output]
    
    The problem here is, of course, that while running in the test suite,
    we must pass INTERNAL_GDBFLAGS in order to pick up the --data-directory
    option.
