I found that binutils-gdb has a minimal contrib/ChangeLog file noting
when files have been copied from GCC.  I added an entry of my own
along with copying over dg-extract-results.py.  The commit log
describing the change and why it is needed is the same as what went
into gcc though.

In any case, it's pushed.  That means that we'll no longer see empty
gdb.sum and gdb.log files when testing Fedora 44 and Rawhide.

In addition, I pushed another fix earlier today which fixes the
UTF-8 issues which were causing the zero-sized files:

[gdb/testsuite, Tcl 9] Fix EILSEQ problems for UTF8 related tests
