    gdb/arm: Fix M-profile EXC_RETURN
    
    Arm v8-M Architecture Reference Manual,
    D1.2.95 EXC_RETURN, Exception Return Payload
    describes ES bit:
    
    "ES, bit [0]
         Exception Secure. The security domain the exception was taken to.
         The possible values of this bit are:
           0 Non-secure.
           1 Secure"
    
    arm-tdep.c:3443, arm_m_exception_cache () function tests this bit:
    
      exception_domain_is_secure = (bit (lr, 0) == 0);
    
    The test is negated!
    
    Later on line 3553, the condition evaluates if an additional state
    context is stacked:
    
      /* With the Security extension, the hardware saves R4..R11 too.  */
      if (tdep->have_sec_ext && secure_stack_used
          && (!default_callee_register_stacking || exception_domain_is_secure))
    
    RM, B3.19 Exception entry, context stacking
    reads:
    RPLHM "In a PE with the Security Extension, on taking an exception,
    the PE hardware:
      ...
      2. If exception entry requires a transition from Secure state to
         Non-secure state, the PE hardware extends the stack frame and also
         saves additional state context."
    
    So we should test for !exception_domain_is_secure instead of non-negated
    value!
    These two bugs compensate each other so unstacking works correctly.
    
    But another test of exception_domain_is_secure (negated due to the
    first bug) prevents arm_unwind_secure_frames to work as expected:
    
      /* Unwinding from non-secure to secure can trip security
         measures.  In order to avoid the debugger being
         intrusive, rely on the user to configure the requested
         mode.  */
      if (secure_stack_used && !exception_domain_is_secure
          && !arm_unwind_secure_frames)
    
    Test with GNU gdb (GDB) 13.0.50.20221016-git.
    Stopped in a non-secure handler:

    The frames #3 and #4 are secure. backtrace should stop before #3.

    The exception from secure to secure erroneously stops unwinding. It should
    continue as far as the security unlimited backtrace:

    Set exception_domain_is_secure to the value expected by its name.
    Fix exception_domain_is_secure usage in the additional state context
    stacking condition.
