[nemiver] Reset command queue on restart GDB after a crash

[Dodji Seketeli <dodji src gnome org>]

commit 8fec0f1abeaca26eea2dee4dae489c43e6af2a6e
Author: Dodji Seketeli <dodji seketeli org>
Date:   Wed Mar 2 22:57:26 2011 +0100

    Reset command queue on restart GDB after a crash
    
    	* src/dbgengine/nmv-gdb-engine.cc
    	(GDBEngine::Priv::reset_command_queue): New function.
    	(GDBEngine::load_program): When launching a fresh GDB (e.g after
    	the previous one crashed) make sure to reset the command queue in
    	case the previous GDB vanished in the middle of a command
    	submitting process -- and so the command queue is left in a stuck
    	state.
