Log message:
	Stop sending qTStatus if the target doesn't recognize it; add packet configuration command.
	
	GDB currently sends a qTStatus even if the target previously replied
	an empty packet to a previous qTStatus.  If the target doesn't
	recognize the packet, there's no point in trying again.
	
	The machinery we have in place is packet_ok, which has the nice side
	effect of forcing one to install a configuration command/knob for the
	packet in question, which is often handy when you need to debug
	things, and/or emulate a target that doesn't support the packet, or even,
	it can be used as workaround for the old broken kgdb's that return error
	to qTSTatus instead of an empty packet.
