[PATCH] Resurrect gdb-add-index as a contrib script

[Samuel Bronson <naesten@gmail.com>]

This includes some changes made in Fedora's gdb packaging[1], and some
slight layout changes to make it look nicer in 80 columns.

[1]: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/gdb.git/log/gdb-gdb-add-index-script.patch?id=fe74423b0812bae6d7bb027584e401a2ac37d24d

I'm including a log of relevant previous activity.

(I would just include committishes, but I'm not quite confident that
history won't be rewritten again, invalidating the hashes, plus there
are no relevant tags so the first two parts of git-describe(1) output
wouldn't be any help either.)
