Default dwarf_synchronous to true Unfortunately the background DWARF reading series introduced a number of races, as repored by thread sanitizer. This patch changes gdb to disable this feature for the time being -- in particular for the gdb 15 release. I've filed a bug and linked all the known races to it. Once those are fixed we can re-enable this feature by default. Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31751
