commit 42af03dafee14cf7b3f4e324ceca1b0ababd1eb9

    gdb/doc: document MI -remove-inferior command
    
    Back in 2010 the -remove-inferior command was added in commit
    a79b8f6ea8c2, unfortunately this command was never added to the
    documentation.
    
    This commit addresses that oversight.
