[PATCH]: MI -var-set-format

Currently:

-var-evaluate-expression var1
^done,value="18"

-var-set-format var1 hexadecimal
^done,format="hexadecimal"

-var-set-format just repeats the format that has been set which is not
very useful since presumably the front end sent it in the first place.

I would like to add the value in the (new) current format, which I find
much more useful:

-var-set-format var1 hexadecimal
^done,format="hexadecimal",value="0x12"

OK to apply if I update the testsuite accordingly?
