[gdb/tui] Add maint set/show tui-left-margin-verbose

The TUI has two types of windows derived from tui_source_window_base:
- tui_source_window (the source window), and
- tui_disasm_window (the disassembly window).

The two windows share a common concept: the left margin.

With a hello world a.out, we can see the source window:
...
┌─/home/vries/hello.c───────────────────────────────────────┐
│        5  {                                               │
│B+>     6    printf ("hello\n");                           │
│        7    return 0;                                     │
│        8  }                                               │
│        9                                                  │
│
...
where the left margin is the part holding "B+>" and the line number, and the
disassembly window:
...
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│    0x555555555149 <main>           endbr64                │
│    0x55555555514d <main+4>         push   %rbp            │
│    0x55555555514e <main+5>         mov    %rsp,%rbp       │
│B+> 0x555555555151 <main+8>         lea    0xeac(%rip),%rax│
│    0x555555555158 <main+15>        mov    %rax,%rdi       │
...
where the left margin is just the bit holding "B+>".

Because the left margin contains some spaces, it's not clear where it starts
and ends, making it harder to observe problems related to it.

Add a new maintenance command "maint set tui-left-margin-verbose", that when
set to on replaces the spaces in the left margin with either '_' or '0',
giving us this for the source window:
...
┌─/home/vries/hello.c───────────────────────────────────────┐
│___000005__{                                               │
│B+>000006__  printf ("hello\n");                           │
│___000007__  return 0;                                     │
│___000008__}                                               │
...
and this for the disassembly window:
...
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│___ 0x555555555149 <main>           endbr64                │
│___ 0x55555555514d <main+4>         push   %rbp            │
│___ 0x55555555514e <main+5>         mov    %rsp,%rbp       │
│B+> 0x555555555151 <main+8>         lea    0xeac(%rip),%rax│
│___ 0x555555555158 <main+15>        mov    %rax,%rdi       │
...

Note the space between "B+>" and 0x555555555151.  The space shows that a bit
of the left margin is not written, a problem reported as PR tui/30325.

Specifically, PR tui/30325 is about the fact that the '[' character from the
string "[ No Assembly Available ]" ends up in that same spot:
...
│B+>[0x555555555151 <main+8>         lea    0xeac(%rip),%rax│
...
which only happens for certain window widths.

The new command allows us to spot the problem with any window width.

Likewise, when we revert the fix from commit 1b6d4bb2232 ("Redraw both spaces
between line numbers and source code"), we have:
...
┌─/home/vries/hello.c───────────────────────────────────────┐
│___000005_ {                                               │
│B+>000006_   printf ("hello\n");                           │
│___000007_   return 0;                                     │
│___000008_ }                                               │
...
showing a similar problem at the space between '_' and '{'.

Tested on x86_64-linux.
