Fix PR python/17386 - add __index__ method to gdb.Value

This patch fixes PR python/17386.

The bug is that gdb.Value does not implement the Python __index__
method.  This method is needed to convert a Python object to an index
and is used by various operations in Python, such as indexing an
array.

The fix is to implement the nb_index method for gdb.Value.

nb_index was added in Python 2.5.  I don't have a good way to test
Python 2.4, but I made an attempt to accomodate it.

I chose to use valpy_long in all cases because this simplifies porting
to Python 3, and because there didn't seem to be any harm.

Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 23.
