Improve `--gdb` command line option handling ...to allow user to specify (shell) command to launch GDB. In some cases (like when gdb is launched on remote machine through SSH), we cannot use UNIX PTYs to have native GDB CLI console. For cases like this, introduce new `--no-pty` option to force VDB to use emulated console even if current platform supports PTY (using PTY when available is preferred).
