Fix gdbserver crashes on SVE/SME-enabled systems
Commit 51e6b8cfd649013ae16a3d00f1451b2531ba6bc9 fixed a
regression for SVE/SME registers on gdb's side by using a <= comparison for
regcache's raw_compare assertion check. We seem to have failed to do the same
for gdbserver's raw_compare counterpart.
With the code as it is, I'm seeing a lot of crashes for gdbserver on a machine
with SVE enabled. For instance, with the following invocation:
make check-gdb RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-gdbserver" TESTS=gdb.base/break.exp

Adjusting the regcache raw_compare assertion check to use <= fixes
the problem on aarch64-linux on a SVE-capable system.
This patch also adds a simple selftest to gdbserver that validates this
particular case by simulating a raw_compare operation.
