    gdb/testsuite: handle older Python versions in gdb.python/py-disasm.exp
    
    It was pointed out on the mailing list that the new tests added in
    this commit:
    
      commit 4de4e48514fc47aeb4ca95cd4091e2a333fbe9e1

          gdb/python: extend the Python Disassembler API to allow for styling
    
    will fail when GDB is built with Python 3.6 or earlier.  This is
    because the error that is emitted when a function argument is missing
    changed in Python 3.7, instead of an error like this:
    
      Python Exception <class 'TypeError'>: function missing required argument 'style' (pos 1)
    
    earlier versions of Python emit:
    
      Python Exception <class 'TypeError'>: Required argument 'style' (pos 1) not found
    
    and the new tests didn't allow for this.
    
    This commit fixes this by allowing either pattern.  I've tested this
    building GDB against Python 3.7.9 and 3.6.15, with this commit all
    tests in gdb.python/py-disasm.exp now pass.
