[pushed] python: Add tests for trying to use an invalid Inferior object

[Simon Marchi]

This patch adds tests for trying to use property or methods on a
gdb.Inferior object that represents an inferior that does not exist
anymore.  We expect an exception to be thrown.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* gdb.python/py-inferior.exp: Test using an invalid gdb.Inferior
	object.
