    [gdb/testsuite] Fix gdb.server/connect-with-no-symbol-file.exp for remote target
    
    Test-case gdb.server/connect-with-no-symbol-file.exp fails with target board
    remote-gdbserver-on-localhost.
    
    The problem is here:
    ...
           set target_exec [gdb_remote_download target $binfile.bak $binfile]
    ...
    A "gdb_remote_download target" copies from build to target.  So $binfile is
    assumed to be a target path, but it's actually a build path.
    
    Fix this by:
    - fist copying $binfile.bak to $binfile, and
    - simply doing [gdb_remote_download target $binfile].
    
    Then, $binfile.bak is created here:
    ...
     # Make sure we have the original symbol file in a safe place to copy from.
     gdb_remote_download host $binfile $binfile.bak
    ...
    and since "gdb_remote_download host" copies from build to host, $binfile.bak
    is assumed to be a host path, but it's actually a build path.  This happens to
    cause no problems in this configuration (because build == host), but it would
    for a remote host configuration.
    
    So let's fix this by making build rather than host the "safe place to copy
    from".
    
    Tested on x86_64-linux.
