testing/gdb-esp: drop package

Marian Buschsieweke requested to merge maribu/aports:testing/gdb-esp/drop into master

The package caused GDB to request reading of non-existing register from OpenOCD when single-stepping through the code, resulting in OpenCOD closing the GDB connection. It seems that only the xtensa-dynconfig plugin approach to configuring the xtensa CPU parameters works with recent versions of GDB.

Since this has been broken for some time, it is unlikely to be missed. !66926 (merged) also provides the xtensa-dynconfig binutils/GCC/GDB plugins and a wrapper for GDB for ease of use, so that an upgrade path is on the horizon.
