[cdt-dev] Minor API Change Requests for TM RemoteCDT Integration

Dear CDT Committers,

as you might be aware, the TM project provides a
CDT integration, which allows remote debugging
through gdb / gdbserver, including automatic
upload and remote launching of gdbserver itself.

Our integration currently needs to use CDT "internal"
classes or methods in three cases. According to the 
Europa Coordinate Release planning meeting [1], I thus
request API changes in the CDT in order to allow our
plugin work through official channels.

I think that all three requests are really small and
reasonable, so I hope this can be done. 

API inconsistency: AbstractCDebuggerTab

Request CLaunchConfigurationTab.setDialogShell()
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=178832

GDBDebuggerPage should be API
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=178835


Once committers agree that this is something you want, 
the implementation should be doable within minutes since 
it is just a simple "move" refactoring or applying my patch.
