Title:
  SRU: update gdb 8.1.1 for 18.04 LTS

Status in gdb package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in gdb source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  gdb 8.1.1 is a minor bug fix release for 8.1. Some of the issues fixed
  in 8.1.1 are already fixed in the branch update in 8.1-0ubuntu3:

   * gdb 8.1.1 release.
      This is a minor corrective release over GDB 8.1, fixing following issues:
      - PR gdb/23028 (inconsistent disassemble of vcvtpd2dq)
      - PR gdb/23053 (Fix -D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG gdb-add-index regression)
      - PR gdb/23127 ([AArch64] GDB cannot be used for debugging software that
        uses high Virtual Addresses)
      - PR server/23158 (gdbserver no longer functional on Windows)
      - PR breakpoints/23210 ([8.1/8.2 Regression] Bogus Breakpoint address
        adjusted from 0xf7fe7dd3 to 0xfffffffff7fe7dd3)
      Already fixed in 8.1-0ubuntu3:
      - PR gdb/22824 (misleading description of new rbreak Python function in
        GDB 8.1 NEWS file)
      - PR gdb/22849 (ctrl-c doesn't work in extended-remote)
      - PR gdb/22907 ([Regression] gdbserver doesn't work with filename-only
        binaries).
    * Allow remote debugging over a Unix local domain socket. LP: #1901026.

  This minor version update fixes four upstream issues (not counting the
  Windows specific issue), plus allows remote debugging over a Unix
  local domain socket., a patch taken from the 8.2 development.

  Validation: The tests run during build time are passing, and the
  remote debugging is checked to be working (no automated test case).
