Issue #14771: Redirect GDB's stdin to avoid messing the terminal settings

Otherwise, GDB seems to affect the terminal's foreground process group,
interfering with test_ioctl, which does not expect the foreground process to
change during the test. This change also solves the problem of the tests
being stopped in the shell if test_gdb is run twice in parallel.
