This small message brings gdbserver's usage message up to date with
the manual, so that it indicates it can support TCP as well as serial
connections. I remember being puzzled by this in the past, so I think
it would make gdb more friendly to have the message correct.
As far as I can see TCP is supported on all platforms where gdbserver
builds.
Thanks,
