Guinevere Larsen bf2813aff8 gdb/record: print frame information when exiting a recursive call
Currently,  when GDB is reverse stepping out of a function into the same
function due to a recursive call, it doesn't print frame information, as
reported by PR record/29178. This happens because when the inferior
leaves the current frame, GDB decides to refresh the step information,
clobbering the original step_frame_id, making it impossible to figure
out later on that the frame has been changed.

This commit changes GDB so that, if we notice we're in this exact
situation, we won't refresh the step information.

Because of implementation details, this change can cause some debug
information to be read when it normally wouldn't before, which showed up
as a regression on gdb.dwarf2/dw2-out-of-range-end-of-seq. Since that
isn't a problem, the test was changed to allow for the new output.
