Author: Dodji Seketeli <dodji seketeli org>

    Avoid emitting useless -enable-pretty-printing
    
    	* src/dbgengine/nmv-gdb-engine.cc
    	(GDBEngine::Priv::pretty_printing_enabled_once): New member.
    	(GDBEngine::Priv::on_conf_key_changed_signal): Don't emit
    	-enable-pretty-printing if it has already been emitted once.
    	(GDBEngine::load_program): Likewise.
