[glib] Do not fail unit test due to gdb abbreviating strings

    Do not fail unit test due to gdb abbreviating strings
    
    gdb by default will only print strings up to 200 characters. After that
    it abbreviates them. This affects the run-assert-msg-test.sh script if
    the path to the glib installation is too long (in our case it was 133
    characters, 132 would still have worked...)
    
    By having gdb execute "set print elements 0" before printing the assert
    string, the limit on maximum number of characters to print is set to
    unlimited.
