There is still a piece missing. Namely, allow the user to force
displaced-stepping in a mode that is not non-stop.  Pedro suggested that
we either change the maint command, or add a new one. How about changing
the maint command into a mainstream command that's a tri-state:

  set use-displaced-stepping (auto|on|off)

By default, it's "auto" which means that the debugger tries to determine
from the situation whether it's necessary or not (basically if non-stop).
But the user can then override the decision either way.
