hooks/001-extra-packages.chroot: add gdbserver #163

Closed anonymouse64 closed 4 years ago

gdbserver is needed in order to use the new snap run --experimental-gdbserver feature. Specifically, using gdbserver is much smaller than adding the full gdb package to the base snap, and allows remote gdb debugging on Ubuntu Core.
