[PATCH] gdb/record-full: Use xmalloc instead of alloca for large buffers.

["Marcin Kościelnicki" <koriakin@0x04.net>]

On the newly added s390 target, it's possible for a single instruction
to write practically unbounded amount of memory (eg. MVCLE).  This caused
a stack overflow when alloca was used.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* record-full.c (record_full_exec_insn): Use xmalloc for large buffers.
