+- add support for masks in watchpoints. The trick is that GDB does not
+  support a breakpoint mask in the remote protocol. One way to work around
+  this is to add a separate command "watchpoint_mask add/rem <addr> <mask>", that
+  is run to register a list of masks that the gdb_server knows to use with
+  a particular watchpoint address.
