    Fix qRcmd error code parsing
    
    Someone at IRC spotted a bug in qRcmd handling. This looks like an oversight
    or it is that way for historical reasons.
    
    The code in gdb/remote.c:remote_target::rcmd uses isdigit instead of
    isxdigit. One could argue that we are expecting decimal numbers, but further
    below we use fromhex ().
    
    Update the function to use isxdigit instead and also update the documentation.
    
    I see there are lots of other cases of undocumented number format for error
    messages, mostly described as NN instead of nn. For now I'll just update
    this particular function.
