URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/320824

Log:
  MFC 320675: Add deprecation notices for gdb and kgdb.
  
  Even though gdb and kgdb may not be removed for 12.0 on some architectures,
  the notice is unconditional as these tools will likely be removed at some
  point in the future when adequate replacements are available (gdb in ports
  or lldb in base).
