  kdb: fix ctrl+e/a/f/b/d/p/n broken in keyboard mode (2024-11-18 15:20:22 +0000)

----------------------------------------------------------------
kgdb patches for 6.13

A relatively modest collection of changes:

* Adopt kstrtoint() and kstrtol() instead of the simple_strtoXX family
  for better error checking of user input.
* Align the print behavour when breakpoints are enabled and disabled by
  adopting the current behaviour of breakpoint disable for both.
* Remove some of the (rather odd and user hostile) hex fallbacks and
  require kdb users to prefix with 0x instead.
* Tidy up (and fix) control code handling in kdb's keyboard code. This
  makes the control code handling at the keyboard behave the same way
  as it does via the UART.
* Switch my own entry in MAINTAINERS to my @kernel.org address.
