not actually reports, just ca. 100 instances of the

Asynchronous execution not supported on this target.

message in the full testsuite log.  Some of them already turn the tests
UNSUPPORTED, while others cause the tests to FAIL.

Like just returning 0 from allow_dap_tests on Solaris?  Or doing so for
all targets lacking async support?

Here's a breakdown of gdb.dap results on Solaris:

      8 ERROR
     11 FAIL
    713 PASS
      8 PATH
      8 UNRESOLVED
      2 UNSUPPORTED

I can't tell if it's still useful this way.
