[Crash-utility] Update gdb to 10.1

Hi all,

I’m thinking to update gdb to recent version.
Are there any concerns?
What should I know? Any dependencies which force us to stick to 7.6?

The features I’m aiming are:
1) `offset` support in add-symbol-file, can be used to provide kaslr_offset to gdb
2) remove-symbol-file - can be used to remove original symbols after finding kaslr_offset

My high-level goal is to give gdb more resources (access to registers, memory, machine info - such as number CPUs), so we can use useful gdb commands as:
bt, frame, info locals

Thanks,
—Alexey
