    gdb/testsuite: Fix rtld-step-nodebugsym.exp
    
    The test case introduced in bafcc335266 (Fix stepping in rtld without
    debug symbol) fails on some systems as reported by PR/29768.  This can
    be seen if the system does not have debug info for the libc:
    
      (gdb) step^M
      Single stepping until exit from function main,^M
      which has no line number information.^M
      hello world[Inferior 1 (process 48203) exited normally]^M
      (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/rtld-step-nodebugsym.exp: step
      continue^M
      The program is not being run.^M
      (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/rtld-step-nodebugsym.exp: continue until exit (the program is no longer running)
    
    Without glibc debug info, GDB steps until the program finishes, and
    then "gdb_continue_to_end" fails.
    
    As this test was designed to check that GDB does not crash in the "step"
    command, the continue does not carry real meaning to the test.
    
    Replace it by "print 0" so we still check that after the step command
    GDB is still alive, which is what we care about.
    
    Tested on Ubuntu-22.04 x86_64, with and without libc6-dbg.
