Added a python event listener that prints a message whenever a breakpoint is deleted. The regexp for detecting deleted breakpoints is now applied repeatedly as long as there are additional matches as the gdb listener writes one message for each deleted breakpoint. This should fix realgud#278, realgud#180 and realgud#61.

Added the change below.
This change depends on gdb having python support, which is a small breaking change.
I haven't tested if the changes intefere with other debugger configurations.
I dabbled with using the
--interpreter mi3option before settling on this solution.Using the GDB/MI seems to be a lot cleaner but this would require a few major architectural changes to realgud and would break a few features like attaching to a running gdb session (I don't know of a way to enable the mi at runtime) and eshell support (as realgud would have to rewrite the command buffer).
