gdb: fix loading compressed scripts from .debug_gdb_scripts-section

Browse Source 
The function `gdb_bfd_get_full_section_contents` doesn't implement
decompressing debug sections. This regresses loading `.debug_gdb_scripts`-section
from ELFs that were built with `-ggdb -Wa,--compress-debug-sections`
giving the following warnings on load:

    warning: BFD: /home/ma27/.cache/debuginfod_client/8284e3a74f442359679ee97e96ee1c434e4479b7/debuginfo: unable to get decompressed section .debug_gdb_scripts
    warning: Couldn't read .debug_gdb_scripts section of /home/ma27/.cache/debuginfod_client/8284e3a74f442359679ee97e96ee1c434e4479b7/debuginfo

The problem can be reproduced with a `test.cc` like this:

    __asm__(".pushsection \".debug_gdb_scripts\", \"MS\",%progbits,1\n"
            ".ascii \"\\4gdb.inlined-script.BOOST_OUTCOME_INLINE_GDB_PRETTY_PRINTER_H\\n\"\n"
            ".ascii \"import gdb.printing\\n\"\n"
            ".ascii \"import os\\n\"\n"

            /* a sufficiently long script such that it gets actually
               compressed */

            ".byte 0\n"
            ".popsection\n");
    #include <iostream>
    int main(void) {
        std::cout << "hello world\n";
        return 0;
    }

I compiled the file with
`g++ test.cc -o test-program -ggdb -Wa,--compress-debug-sections` (GCC
version 14.3.0).

As suggested, this refactors gdb_bfd_get_full_section_contents to use
bfd_get_full_section_contents which implements decompression.
