[Bug cli/11204] New: Make logging more flexible

[ppluzhnikov at google dot com]

With 'set logging on', GDB will record its output into gdb.txt

It is often desirable to include my input there as well (either so I can
remember later what I was doing, or so I can take gdb.txt and attach it
to a bug report directly, instead of doing screen scrape).

It would also be nice to be able to timestamp output in gdb.txt, so when
dealing with performance bugs, it's immediately clear which operations
took how long.

I think 'set logging NNN' could become a multi-state (similar to 'handle'), e.g.

 set logging user gdb timestamp  # turn all on
 set logging on             # alias for "set logging gdb" (backward compat)
 set logging off            # alias for "set logging nouser nogdb notimestamp"

I've searched for "logging" before filing this, but PR 8822 doesn't have that
word in its subject.
