Running gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp on Cygwin, where
GDBserver does not support non-stop mode, I see:

 FAIL: gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp: target_non_stop=off: info threads
 FAIL: gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp: target_non_stop=on: attach to the program via remote (timeout)
 FAIL: gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp: target_non_stop=on: info threads (timeout)

Let's ignore the first "info threads" fail.  The timeouts look like
this:

 builtin_spawn /home/alves/gdb-cache-cygwin/gdb/../gdbserver/gdbserver --once --multi localhost:2346
 Listening on port 2346
 target extended-remote localhost:2346
 Remote debugging using localhost:2346
 Non-stop mode requested, but remote does not support non-stop
 (gdb) gdb_do_cache: can_spawn_for_attach (  )
 builtin_spawn /home/alves/gdb/build-cygwin-testsuite/outputs/gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process/attach-no-multi-process
 attach 14540
 FAIL: gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp: target_non_stop=on: attach to the program via remote (timeout)
 info threads
 FAIL: gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp: target_non_stop=on: info threads (timeout)

Note the "Non-stop mode requested, but remote does not support
non-stop" line.

The intro to gdb_target_cmd_ext says:

 # gdb_target_cmd_ext
 # Send gdb the "target" command.  Returns 0 on success, 1 on failure, 2 on
 # unsupported.

That's perfect here, we can just use gdb_target_cmd_ext instead of
gdb_target_cmd, and check for 2 (unsupported).  That's what this patch
does.

However gdb_target_cmd_ext incorrectly returns 1 instead of 2 for the
case where the remote target says it does not support non-stop.  That
is also fixed by this patch.

With this, we no longer get those timeout fails.  We get instead:

 target extended-remote localhost:2346
 Remote debugging using localhost:2346
 Non-stop mode requested, but remote does not support non-stop
 (gdb) UNSUPPORTED: gdb.multi/attach-no-multi-process.exp: target_non_stop=on: non-stop RSP
