summary:

[3.13] gh-159914: Ignore gdb stderr in test_gdb.test_pretty_print (GH-159916) 
(#160201)

gh-159914: Ignore gdb stderr in test_gdb.test_pretty_print (GH-159916)

test_strings() gets gdb.host_charset(), but fails if gdb writes
anything to stderr. For example, it fails if gdb logs the warning:

    "/usr/bin/gdb: warning: Couldn't determine a path for the index
    cache directory."

Even if stdout contains the expected encoding ("UTF-8").

Change test_gdb to only fail if stdout is empty, ignore stderr
otherwise to ignore gdb warnings.
(cherry picked from commit 88d922ad982c4e00f8cb936cffba154d8d5fb697)
