* Fix Arch CI: install missing netcat (#1400)
The arch linux test_command_procinfo was failing bcoz the netcat was not
installed on arch build. This commit fixes it by:
1) installing gnu-netcat for arch linux setup-dev.sh
2) asserting that nc is available in the test itself, to prevent similar
regressions from happening on future/newer images
* Fix Arch CI: the load binary tests (#1400)
Before this commit we asserted whether the loaded binary in tests report
to find or not find debug symbols but this is irrelevant for the thing
we want to test there which is: pwndbg loading. What eventually cares is
whether Pwndbg got loaded and didn't raise an exception.
This commit fixes those tests so they should now work also on ArchLinux
CI and on all CI builds.
Additionally, it removes the `compile_binary` test utility function
which was redundant as we compile all test binaries via a makefile.
* fix lint
* cleanup tests/binaries/div_zero_binary
The cymbol command did not work on old GDB versions like 8.2 because
they require the ADDR argument to be passed into the `add-symbol-file`
command unlike newer GDB versions in which the argument is optional.
This can be seen below.
```
pwndbg> help add-symbol-file
Load symbols from FILE, assuming FILE has been dynamically loaded.
Usage: add-symbol-file FILE ADDR [-readnow | -readnever | -s SECT-NAME SECT-ADDR]...
ADDR is the starting address of the file's text.
Each '-s' argument provides a section name and address, and
should be specified if the data and bss segments are not contiguous
with the text. SECT-NAME is a section name to be loaded at SECT-ADDR.
The '-readnow' option will cause GDB to read the entire symbol file
immediately. This makes the command slower, but may make future operations
faster.
The '-readnever' option will prevent GDB from reading the symbol file's
symbolic debug information.

When we optimized tests runs with gnu parallel execution, we broke the
--pdb flag. This commit fixes it and sets the SERIAL flag so that tests
are run one by one when --pdb is passed.
Added a heuristic to check whether we are debugging using a Blackmagic probe or a SEGGER J-link, if yes we don't download any elf files (this caused pwndbg to error out).
If there is some other application using port 31337, you get an XML RPC error:
```
[!] Ida Pro xmlrpc error

We should disable IDA by default, and any users that want it can just enable it in their config.
* fix shlint
* Fix crash when unable to get ehdr and fix vmmap coredump test
This commit fixes two issues and test them.
1. It changes the reads in `get_ehdr` to partial reads so that inability
to read the `vmmap.start` address there will not crash Pwndbg with
`gdb.error` but instead we will simply return `None` as expected from
this function. This crash could happen on Debian 10 (GDB 8.2.1) and
Ubuntu 18.04 (not sure which GDB) when you did:
- gdb ./binary-that-crashes
- `run`
- `generate-core-file /tmp/core`
- `file` - to unload the binary
- `core-file /tmp/core` - to load the generated core
At this point I think we may have preserved the old vmmap info and use
it in `get_ehdr` maybe, which then crashed? I am not sure, but this fix
here works.
To test this behavior properly I also added the `unload_file`
parametrization to the
`test_command_vmmap_on_coredump_on_crash_simple_binary` test.
2. We fix the vmmap coredump test case when the `info proc mappings` returns nothing on core
dumps on old GDBs. In such case we are missing the vmmap info about
the binary mapping, so now we properly remove it in the test.

This fixes the weird error that appeared on debian10 CI:
```
root@98cc3841eab9:/pwndbg/tests/gdb-tests/tests/binaries# ld -Ttext 0x400000 -o memory.out memory.o
ld: section .note.gnu.property LMA [00000000004000e8,0000000000400107] overlaps section .text LMA [0000000000400000,00000000004001a4]
```
It turned out that the .note.gnu.property address was choosen to be the
same as our hardcoded .text address and so we got into this issue.
This PR hardcodes the gnu section address.
When libc has no symbols, to search the `main_arena` and `mp_` in the memory, we will need to find which page is possible to have those symbols first.
Before this commit, we used `.got.plt` to determine it, but it might fail in some cases. Using the address of `.data` should be a better solution.
