This part is okay, except that...

You want "@table @samp" here, not @itemize.  Like this:

  @table @samp
  @item async
  Indicates that the target is capable of asynchronous command
  execution, which means that GDB will accept further commands
  while the debuggee is running.

@itemize is for ordered lists, like when you want to show several
alternatives or a sequence of actions.  When you want to describe
several attributes, you need to distinguish between the attribute and
its description, which is what @table is for.

(Note that I removed the "even" part.)  And please use @value{GDBN}
instead of a literal "GDB".
