qemu coroutine command results in following error output:
Python Exception <class 'gdb.error'> 'arch_prctl' has unknown return
type; cast the call to its declared return type: Error occurred in
Python command: 'arch_prctl' has unknown return type; cast the call to
its declared return type
Fix it by giving it what it wants: arch_prctl return type.

get_fs_base() cannot be run on a core dump, because it uses the arch_prctl
system call. The fs base is the value that is returned by pthread_self(),
and it would be nice to just glean it from the "info threads" output:
* 1 Thread 0x7f16a3fff700 (LWP 33642) pthread_cond_wait@@GLIBC_2.3.2 ()
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
but unfortunately the gdb API does not provide that. Instead, we can
look for the "arg" argument of the start_thread function if glibc debug
information are available. If not, fall back to the old mechanism.
