[RFC] [gdb/testsuite] Add xfail in gdb.base/hbreak.exp

[Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de>]

On an aarch64-linux system with 32-bit userland running in a chroot, and using
target board unix/mthumb I get:
...
(gdb) hbreak hbreak.c:27^M
Hardware assisted breakpoint 2 at 0x4004e2: file hbreak.c, line 27.^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/hbreak.exp: hbreak
continue^M
Continuing.^M
Unexpected error setting breakpoint: Invalid argument.^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/hbreak.exp: continue to break-at-exit after hbreak
...
due to this call in arm_linux_nat_target::low_prepare_to_resume:
...
          if (ptrace (PTRACE_SETHBPREGS, pid,
              (PTRACE_TYPE_ARG3) ((i << 1) + 1), &bpts[i].address) < 0)
            perror_with_name (_("Unexpected error setting breakpoint"));
...

This problem does not happen if instead we use a 4-byte aligned address.

I'm not sure if this is simply unsupported or if there's a kernel bug of some
sort, but I don't see what gdb can do about this.

Tentatively mark this as xfail.

Tested on aarch64-linux.
