Martin, any comments?

IMHO "restoring the previous window layout when gdb quits" should be
opt-in (or at least opt-out).  Maybe it also should restore the layout
only when 'gdb-many-windows' is non-nil, so we'd have the three option
values nil, t, and if-gdb-many-windows (in a menu entry).

I had the same thoughts myself, and I agree on both counts.
