libpayload: gdb: Factor out gdb_handle_reentrant_exception() from arm32
The arm32 GDB architecture code contains a little hack that allows it to (sort of) correctly deal with a reentrant exception triggered from within the GDB stub. The main logic for this isn't really arm32 specific and could be useful for other architectures as well, so factor it out into a separate function.
