--gdb-opts complements existing --gdb.  You need to use both for full
control.

I figure you do this because you can't extend --gdb, as its argument is
in legacy character device syntax, not QemuOpts.

We had similar cases before, and solved them differently: create a more
general option, then make the old one sugar for the new one.

For instance, --monitor and --qmp are sugar for --mon.  Desugaring code
is in monitor_parse().
